Most cathedrals allow non-flash, non-tripod photography at any time. Notable exceptions are Westminster Abbey and the Chapel (St. Georges?) at Windsor Castle. Without flash or tripod there is little for you to do inside a cathedral except take pictures of the stained glass windows. Westminister Abbey, I believe, was the place that had photography sessions on Tuesday afternoon, or something, like that. I wasn't there on the right day. One place I asked about a permit and was told the person in charge of permits wouldn't be in until that afternoon. I didn't have time on my itinerary to wait around. So I stand by my warning. If you are planning SERIOUS cathedral photography, you had better plan ahead or you will be frustrated frequently in your efforts. Vick Bennison ...decvax!decwrl!rhea!tools!bennison (603) 881-2156
