Close-up of stained glass window detail in Sant Pau

Light is the invisible curator of Sant Pau.

When to go for glass and glow

Time	What you get
Early morning	Soft contrast, fewer crowds
Midday	Maximum clarity in details
Late afternoon	Warm tones and dramatic shadows

Three reliable viewpoints

Window corridors with lateral light
Dome-adjacent spaces for overhead diffusion
Entrance transitions where inside/outside colors meet

Exposure checklist (for phones too)

Tap brightest color pane and lower exposure slightly.
Keep vertical lines straight.
Include one architectural anchor in each shot.

Composition formula

foreground detail + midground arch + background light source

Bottom line

At Sant Pau, glass is less about opacity and more about atmosphere.
