After the challenge, Gavin takes you through the steps he took to get the best from one of the photos.

Gavin, nice to see you in my home town!
Gav, your ability to create images from any location, that I would gladly hang on my wall, amazes me every time! Thanks
That "hole", Gavin, is called an oculus! I love your videos and thank you for doing what you do. You constantly inspire me.
The person to his right at 4:50 is obviously Japanese.. they are so polite and respectful. There was another video that you did where you could see another Japanese gentleman wait until you finished shoot.
As for the video's, you're very good at it thank you. I just don't understand why there are so few thumbs up, come on people almost 67k views and yet only 1.1k likes. That is ridiculous... please remember to thumb up. He really is a good teacher, so these videos are soooooooo worth while and should be higher up the rankings... Only you can do that with your like.... click it I dare you!!!!!
Great shots. I appreciate the fact that you used the sky that was therr for replacement.
Great job with the sky.
Amazing pics. Gavin is a master.
STUNNING SHOTS! Both in the building and the ones with the fountain ⛲! Thanks a lot!
Fascinating as I found myself in Rome with only a couple of hours free from a business meeting, and I headed straight to the Pantheon, which is one of my very favorite buildings in the world. I was not disappointed, but I ended up with pretty much a short photographic challenge. My biggest disappointment was that the day before, it had been raining heavily, and I would love to be in the Pantheon when it is pouring through the eye! It is surprisingly difficult to find composition that eliminate distractions due to the horrific church renovations. I sure wish it could be restored to its original Roman simplicity. Still, an absolutely amazing experience.
Great video Gavin, as always with a lot of answers before we ask the questions (exifs etc.) Thank you !
Yet another brilliant video. Some great tips for improving low light shots too. Thanks Gavin.
thanks you so much Gavin for this tutorial. You know? I had exactly the same problem and this tutorial has helped me to put a sky in white whole. You have no idea how grateful I am!!!!
Nice job.
I really liked your panorama shot at 4:57 as well.
Glad to hear to hear that you are enjoying and appreciating your Olympus gear!
Nice stuff Gavin. Was just in Rome a couple of weeks ago and missed the Pantheon, but had fun elsewhere. Next time then. There's just so much to see there.
Great pictures! Always looking forward to your videos.
Awesome video Gavin! I couldn't enjoy this more, I am from Rome and a big fan of yours.
I just notice this on your FB page Gavin, really glad you've started doing the 15 min challenges as these inspire me to get my camera out.
man i so like this guy
Such a great shot, that I have revisited my own ones from a few years back and followed your processing tips, so many thanks for the inspiration, once again.
Great to see a video that uses my current favourite camera & lens combination! I think you've inspired me to take the 12-40 on an upcoming trip. Thanks for the tips!
Thank you.
Thanks for the inspiration. Great video!
Love the 15 minute challenge vids, keep up the good work!
Hoey your my hero!
Great video it is like a friend giving you advice
Love these photo challenge vids.
Beautiful images thanks to its refined look, parabens.
Wow, I was just there last week. I got some great shots too! There was also a full blue moon and took some shots with the moon through one of the windows of the Colosseum. I wish I ended up seeing you there! It would be great to meet you Gavin.
I'll be in Rome this summer... makes me want to challenge my photography skills when I'll be there.
Miss your videos.
I love Rome
I just came back from there myself. I was SOOOOOO mad that the Trevi Fountain was under construction. The Pantheon is an awesome sight
d no Agreed, we had planned a late night shoot/video at Travi only to hear is was out of bounds until later this year... Any excuse to return ;)
haa haa. That sounds like a plan. I wish I had that same luxury. Did you happen to see the parliament building by the Colosseum ?
I really enjoy your vids, keep em coming. :)
Stunning work as usual !! One question, to compose your panorama did u use oly workspace or lightroom ?
I'm going to Rome next summer and recently picked up the E-M10, so this video was perfect for me! I'll also be spending a few days in Venice, any chance you'll be doing a similar video in Venice sometime in the next 6 months?
Someday, I hope to see things as well as you!
amazing video! :D and this nosy guy in red rocks! :D
Hey Gavin, you consistently give great information and examples in your videos. Thank you very much for what you do. I agree about the Pantheon. It might be my favorite building in the world and just down the street is the restaurant that invented Death by Chocolate. Can't beat that.
Jason Patz How did I miss that! Now I will HAVE to go back :)
Awesome video Gavin,been all over italy but never been to rome(one day) fountains were amazing and did love the work you did in photoshop,so fast and easy.i love to travel but still not sure what lens to buy.
Hello Gavin , I always like your videos , thanks , I've been there and the place is awesome , loved the panorama @ 4:56
I just wonder: Why don't you use the tone curve? - Story is: I found this video very inspiring and when in Rome I (of course) tried to take up the "challenge of the hole in the roof". Now, some time later, I reviewed my pictures and actually could recover both the highlights and the shadows in Lightroom, using the tone curve. Of course, if your highlights are totally blown out you have to fake it, but fortunately I (just) could make it!
What's the best software to stitch up panoramas? I've used DPP and Zoner Photo Studio and they've both failed miserably despite my shots being perfectly aligned.
Another great video!
Are you going to visit Turin or Milan?
Gianluca Stella Not this time but may be in the future :)
Looking forward to!

Hi Gavin are you allowed to use a tripod in panthenon ?
Hi Gavin, may I ask which Black Rapid strap this is?? I have the Sony a6000, and the stock strap just doesn't cut the mustard anymore. Superb pano by the way!! :)
Nick Powell It's the RS-7 also known as the Black Rapid Curve and it's the only strap I use :)
Gavin Hoey Thanks very much, will be purchasing one right now!!
Hi Gavin, great video. Love to know your thoughts on the E-M5 MII? :)
RicheUK Lots to like with mirrorless. With the Olympus E-M5 II you can customise almost every aspect of the camera, so my E-M5ii is just that, mine and unique to me :)
:) thanks for the reply, indeed a great camera
Where did you stay while in Rome?
I was there for 5 days and didn't take anything as good as that :)
what time of the day were you there?
Love this episodes 'subscribe', did the authorities find your hammer and chisel?
Jon Ellis Thanks Jon. I just found the word "Subscribe" on the side of the Pantheon ;)
I want to work with you once in my life
5:20 Do you need to make sure that image stabilization is turned off when taking this photo or when using a tripod? I have heard conflicting opinions on this point.
why would you need them on a tripod?
Only on dslrs because of the moving mirror. Mirrorless not really.
That is no challenge. A 15 minute challenge is a texas photoshoot in midday. A 2 year old can take pictures in the pantheon and get great pictures.
