And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
Rolling Stones ~ Dead Flowers
"In Memory of Thomas, son of Richard and Ann Barrow, Master of the sloop Two Brothers, who by the breaking of the horse fell into the sea and was drown'd.
October the 13th, 1759 Aged 23 years."
The horse was a section of foot rigging which allowed access to parts of booms.
"But now no longer do these walls
Give back the chant of psalm or hymn
No more will flickering candles light
The pilgrim’s way through shadows dim."
From An Abandoned Church by Michael Morris ~
Known as Holy Trinity it was the largest church in England. Dating back from the 13th century it was given Minster status in March 2017 and is now Hull Minster. The tubes in front are a temporary art installation. I think the water feature is permanent.
Kościół Św. Trójcy (bonifratrów) przy ul. Krakowskiej.
The Crucifixion chapel (1630-1640).
The Holy Trinity church (The Hopitaller Order of St. John the Divine temple), the work of the famous architect Francisco Placidi, is one of the most beautiful Baroque buildings in Krakow. It was consecrated by Krakow Bishop Franciszek Potkański in 1758. The side aisles were reduced to the row of chapels, opened wide and high to the central nave. The interior is enriched with moulding and polychromes. The vault is decorated with illusionist polychrome created by Josef Plitz of Holochov in the years 1757-1758.
The image for today was taken late this Afternoon in the Cathedral Quarter of Coventry city centre. The view is of of the inside of the Grade I listed Holy Trinity church. Looking down past the Font and the Nave towards the Choir stalls and Altar.
The photo was taken using the app ProCamera on my iPhone 6.
First I used the app Snapseed to edit the photo. I Cropped and Straightened the image and applied the Tonal Contrast filter. I then boosted the Contrast, Ambiance, Shadow area and Warmth. I also decreased the Highlights a little and added some extra Structure. Next I used the app Brushstroke to apply the Gloss G2 painterly preset. I also changed the canvas type to Cold Press. Finally I used PhotoToaster to add the Contrast preset, the Vibrant FX and a Medium Dark Vignette. I then applied the Stucco texture and the Leather frame.
* Always liked the look of this Victorian pub on the corner of Trinity Square in Hull’s old town. The tower is part of Hull’s indoor market, which is getting renovated at the moment
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FOR TAKING THE TIME TO WRITE A COMMENT IT’S MUCH APPRECIATED AND SO MUCH MORE INTRESTING THAN JUST GIVING A FAVE
Another photo I took recently at Manchester United FC's stadium in Old Trafford. This is the 'Holy Trinity' statue of Best Law & Charlton that's located in front of the stadium
The church is depicted in the Bayeux Tapestry as it was here that Harold, Earl of Wessex and soon to be King prayed with his men before embarking on the ill fated trip to Normandy before the Norman Conquest of 1066.
The exact age of the arch is uncertain. It appears to be of Norman construction, but seems to be faithfully reproduced in the Bayeux Tapestry which is thought to have been embroidered, (not actually a tapestry and now widely accepted to have been made in England!) soon after the conquest, perhaps as a gift for William's coronation. If this is the arch in the tapestry it must have been constructed soon after 1066.
Looking from the chancel to the barn-like medieval body of the church.
In the vicinity of Jelšava, an old mining village Rákoš hides a quiet church with unique Gothic paintings. The church was built on an elevated site in the northern part of the village under the slope of Železník Hill on top of which a castle of the Bubek Family was once standing.
The Roman Catholic Church of the Holy Trinity is an early Gothic single-nave building from the mid-13th century. It has still a Romanesque horseshoe-shaped apse and slotted Romanesque windows, but the entrance portal is already formed by a Gothic arch. The nave has a flat wooden painted ceiling from the end of the 17th century. In front of the church stands a Baroque brick belfry with a wooden superstructure.
Wall paintings from the last third of the 15th century cover the walls and the vault of the chancel and almost the entire northern wall of the nave. High-quality Italian fresco paintings can be seen, a piece of art ordered by the wealthy noblemen from the House of Bubek. Travelling through northern Italy in the service of King Louis the Great, they had an opportunity to acquaint themselves with the best works of Italian masters whom they brought to the Kingdom of Hungary to decorate churches in Plešivec, Štítnik, and Rákoš. The vault of the sanctuary depicts the Christ Pantocrator with angels, the four church fathers and the symbols of the Evangelists (Matthew – angel, Mark – lion, Luke – bull, and John – eagle). On the walls of the sanctuary, we can find prophets, apostles and three saint kings: Ladislaus, Stephen, and Emeric. In the window lining, there are figures of women saints: Catherine, Barbara, Elisabeth and Margaret of Hungary. One of the most interesting parts is the unconventional depiction of Christ standing in a grave held by Mother Mary. The scene is complemented with the figures of an angel and of St. John the Baptist. Figures of saints, prophets, a depiction of the ten virgins, a partially damaged figure of the Virgin Mary Protector and a very well-preserved sitting figure of God with three faces giving blessings are on the walls of the triumphal arch. This unusual way of portraying the Holy Trinity which has been later banned by the Trident Council for its striking resemblance to the pagan god Triglav, still appears in two other locations in Slovakia – Ochtiná (logo of the Gothic Route) and Žehra.
The northern wall of the nave is almost entirely covered with murals in three horizontal bands. The upper band depicts scenes from the St. Ladislaus legend, it shows lancer horse riders of the St. Ladislaus’s royal entourage at the forefront, in a dynamic moment of fight with the Cumans. The second and the third band below portray the Last Judgment with the central figure of Christ the Redeemer with angels and a number of saints on the sides. Right below them we can see open graves from which dead are rising. Archangel Michael divides them into two groups, the saved ones, who walk to the left towards the heaven‘s gate, and the damned ones, whose chains are bound by the devils to the gate of hell. The most recent of the paintings date back to the first half of the 15th century; they depict the Assumption of the Virgin, individual figures of saints and the Stigmatization of St. Francis. We have chosen the hand of St. Francis with a stigma as the logo of the church. On the outer southern wall of the church, fragments of the painting of Madonna and Child have been preserved. Since 1992, there have been intermittent renewal activities of the church taking place, during which the restoration of murals was included. Furniture is stored and it would be returned into the church, once the restoration works are finished.
Holy Trinity Church at Wentworth, Rotherham, South Yorkshire. The Grade II* church was commissioned by the 6th Earl Fitzwilliam in 1872 to replace the old Church of Holy Trinity nearby. This impressive church has a 200 foot spire and seating for over 500 people and was designed by leading Victorian church architect John Loughborough Pearson and it was consecrated in 1877.

A beautiful handmade replica of the Bayeux Tapestry on display in the church, showing what seems to be the present chancel arch, the ill-fated William entering to offer prayers before sailing from Bosham to Normandy to visit William, the future 'William the Conqueror'; the last time England was conquered, the date every schoolboy knows, (or use to) AD 1066
No one knows for sure who commissioned the Bayeux Tapestry or where it was intended to be hung in either England or Normandy, but it is thought to have been a gift to William the Conqueror and created by Anglo Saxon weavers probably around Canterbury.
(I'd hoped to use the new 'reflection removal' function in Photoshop but can't get it to recognize the PEF (Pentax's raw files) format...or am I doing something wrong or is there a way around the problem?)
The old parish church of the port of Sunderland, built in 1719. Possibly designed by William Etty, with later additions.
Now in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.
The Metéora - Greek: "suspended in the air" or "in the heavens above" — is one of the largest and most important complexes of Eastern Orthodox monasteries in Greece, second only to Mount Athos.

Unspoilt and quiet, Ardington and the nearby villages are part of the extensive Lockinge Estate. This is prosperous horse racing and training country, and stables and gallops abound on the nearby downland.
Stavanger Cathedral (Stavanger domkirke) is Norway's oldest cathedral. It is situated in the middle of Stavanger, and is the seat of the Diocese of Stavanger. (from Wikipedia)
It was a dark and stormy night...
Brought the camera and my tripod on my weekly trip to Stavanger this week, and got a few shots before it got too late in the evening.
I recommend seeing it BIG on black: 'Stavanger Cathedral'
Jack Crawford is celebrated as a hero on Wearside for his exploits at a famous battle. Crawford was born in the East End of Sunderland and, as a youngster, worked as a keelman until 1786 when he joined the crew of the 'Peggy' at South Shields as an apprentice. It is worth bearing in mind that at this point, he was still only 12 years old!
In 1796, he was press-ganged into the Royal Navy and served on HMS Venerable under Admiral Duncan, the Royal Navy Commander-in-Chief of the North Seas.
It was Jack Crawford's actions at the Battle of Camperdown (11 October 1797) that would eventually establish him as a legend.
During the battle, part of the HMS Venerable's mast was shot down and with it, the admiral's flag. Despite being under intense gunfire, Crawford climbed the mast and nailed the colours to the top of what was left of the mast.
Later, at a victory procession in London, he was formally presented to the King and was given a government pension of £30 a year. He later received a silver medal from the people of Sunderland.
Unfortunately in later life, Jack Crawford fell on hard times. He liked a drink or two and was regularly in a state of drunkenness. Eventually, he ended up selling his medal.
Tragically, he became the second victim of the cholera epidemic of 1831 and ended up buried in an unmarked pauper's grave.
It was some years after Crawford had died, that interest in the so-called 'Hero of Camperdown' was re-kindled after a play about his life went on tour. Crawford's un-marked grave ended having a memorial headstone be-fitting a hero, not to mention a separate memorial in nearby Mowbray Park that was paid for by public donations.
