I've been meaning to ask you, how wide is your lens? You seem to get much better wide shots than I do with mine. I was struggling to encapsulate the whole room and you got it pretty easily.

It's a 55-200mm Nikor zoom (standard package). I need to get my 28mm back from the niece one of these days...

The lighting in this place is just amazing. Great camera (and photographer) to get that level of depth.

Thanks. The only artificial light in the place was from the little spotlights on the display cases (you can see them behind the skull pylons). The rest was from the very deep windows behind the bone pyramids and the side chapels and the open doorway -- you entered the church and immediately descended two flights of stairs (the large bone chalices were in niches on the stairway). The light inside was really different depending on where you were standing.

Weren't there spotlights on the bone pyramids? Pointing up from the base right on the front skulls.
