Wills Memorial Building, Bristol, UK
No, this is not a church. It's the entrance hall of a university building. 75ft (23 metres) high fan-vaulting, the Founders' Window above the entrance door. Building was designed by George Oatley 1912-1914 and built 1915-1925. Perpendicular Gothic Revival style. Memorial to Henry Overton Wills (1828-1911), who donated 100,000 pounds to Bristol "University College" shortly before it gained university status in 1909.

I was so fortunate to be matched with the extremely talented MFayre for Week 11. Our theme was one that we both struggled to come up with an image that properly portrayed the theme - or at least I did! I wanted to take an image that portrayed the literal definition of the word "perpendicular" - as in the geometry definition. I love how MFayre's image and mine work so well together! Brilliant!
This is a diptych project by a group of female photographers who have known each other a long time on Flickr. The project matches two of us together each week with a different theme to interpret how we want, on an individual basis. We then create a diptych using each of our photographs.
The results of the collabrations are being posted on a blog, which you can find here ...
When lava flows slowly cool, the cooling lava contracts and ruptures, resulting in meter-long, hexagonal basalt columns. Only when the columns are thicker than one meter does a heptagonal column cross-section form. The slower the lava cools, the more uniform the columns are, with the columns always forming perpendicular to the cooling surface.
La capilla del King College de la Universidad de Cambridge se considera uno de los mejores ejemplos de finales del gótico perpendicular de la arquitectura inglesa. La capilla fue construida en fases por una sucesión de reyes de Inglaterra, desde 1446 hasta 1515, un período que comprendió la Guerra de las Rosas. Las grandes vidrieras de la capilla no se completaron hasta 1531, y su reja del primer Renacimiento fue erigida en 1532-1536.
King's College Chapel is the chapel at King's College in the University of Cambridge. It is considered one of the finest examples of late Perpendicular Gothic English architecture. The chapel was built in phases by a succession of kings of England from 1446 to 1515, a period which spanned the Wars of the Roses. The chapel's large stained glass windows were not completed until 1531, and its early Renaissance rood screen was erected in 1532–36.
Fall is most likely my favorite season. Maybe spring, however, or summer. Gosh, I just love winter, though.
I think it looks pretty good large and on black.
This is an older shot from the Columbia River Gorge taken at the Upper Latourell Falls. The hike up here is short but the elevation gain is a lot. Because you have to trek higher than the the lower Latourell Falls which by the way is gigantic this waterfall is much higher up in elevation. Oh and it's much more photogeneic because there's a nice little bridge to add interest to the scene.

The Abbey Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, commonly known as Bath Abbey, is a parish church of the Church of England and former Benedictine monastery in Bath, Somerset, England. Founded in the 7th century, it was reorganized in the 10th century and rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries; major restoration work was carried out by Sir George Gilbert Scott in the 1860s. It is one of the largest examples of Perpendicular Gothic architecture in the West Country. The medieval abbey church served as a sometime cathedral of a bishop. After long contention between churchmen in Bath and Wells the seat of the Diocese of Bath and Wells was later consolidated at Wells Cathedral. The Benedictine community was dissolved in 1539 during the Dissolution of the Monasteries.
The church architecture is cruciform in plan and can seat up to 1,200 patrons. An active place of worship, it also hosts civic ceremonies, concerts and lectures. The church has two organs and a peal of ten bells. The west front includes sculptures of angels climbing to heaven on two stone ladders, representing Jacob's Ladder. (Source: Wikipedia)
Finally! This is the last photo I have to upload from 2014. I'm really excited to share some of the fun stuff I've done this year!
This is a time stack made from 191, the first 19 photos were faded in using 5% increments of the layer opacity.
As always, I used this script to automate the stacking in photoshop. advancedstacker.com
Perpendicular style tower and nave, much altered by Thomas Fulljames who rebuilt the chancel in 1863-65, and added a north aisle. The church, which is fairly remote from the village, is approached by a long grass path, lined with Yew trees, and has a very "countryfied" atmosphere, despite the high quality masonry.

Ok, last one for awhile, for real this time. Also, my first photo for 2012. Thank you again for all the support.

The Parish Church of Saint Peter & Saint Paul
Salle is a small village in North Norfolk, it is situatd 1.5 miles north from the market town of Reepham.
The church of St Peter and St Paul, which dates from the first part of the 15th century, is an exceptionally complete Perpendicular building. The scale of the church does not match that of the village with the church being as large as a town church.
The 130 feet west tower faced with Barnack stone and flint has been described as "the most perfectly composed of all late medieval Norfolk towers".
St Augustine's at Skirlaugh in East Yorkshire. Built 1401-05, the Grade I church is one of the finest examples of perpendicular architecture in the country.

Overnight ice formation in a ditch. Color and contrast enhanced with polarizing filter. Amazing texture and complex patterns. So much for the randomness of nature.
On the western edge of the escarpment overlooking the Vale of Severn, this pretty little church dates from the latter part of the 15th century, when an earlier church was rebuilt in 1475, and has had little restoration since, so it's more or less all in the same Perpendicular style. It is unusual in that the entrance to the nave is beneath the western tower.

Interessante notar que no momento em que chegamos ao topo, não conseguimos ver pra baixo e muito menos pra cima perpendicularmente. Há o teto, o chão e o entorno.
The theme of the week in the 366 Group is "perpendicular", so I suppose I'll be looking for architectural elements this week...

One of the largest examples of Perpendicular Gothic architecture in the West Country, Bath Abbey is a Church of England parish church and former Benedictine monastery. Founded in the 7th century, it was reorganised in the 10th century and rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries. The restoration of the cathedral was completed just a few years before the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1539.
The medieval abbey church served as a sometime cathedral of a bishop. After long contention between ecclesiastics in the cities of Bath and Wells, the seat of the Diocese of Bath and Wells was later consolidated at Wells Cathedral after the Benedictine community was dissolved in 1539 during the Dissolution of the Monasteries.
Prior Holloway surrendered Bath Priory to the crown in January 1539. It was sold to Humphry Colles of Taunton. The church was stripped of lead, iron and glass and left to decay. Colles sold it to Matthew Colthurst of Wardour Castle in 1543. His son Edmund Colthurst gave the roofless remains of the building to the corporation of Bath in 1572. The corporation had difficulty finding private funds for its restoration.
In 1574, Queen Elizabeth I promoted the restoration of the church, to serve as the grand parish church of Bath. She ordered that a national fund should be set up to finance the work, and in 1583 decreed that it should become the parish church of Bath. James Montague, the Bishop of Bath and Wells from 1608 to 1616, paid £1,000 for a new nave roof of timber lath construction; according to the inscription on his tomb, this was prompted after seeking shelter in the roofless nave during a thunderstorm. He is buried in an alabaster tomb in the north aisle.
During the 1820s and 1830s buildings, including houses, shops and taverns which were very close to or actually touching the walls of the abbey were demolished and the interior remodelled by George Phillips Manners who was the Bath City Architect. Manners erected flying buttresses to the exterior of the nave and added pinnacles to the turrets
The abbey is a Grade I listed building, particularly noted for its fan vaulting. It contains war memorials for the local population and monuments to several notable people, in the form of wall and floor plaques and commemorative stained glass. The church has two organs and a peal of ten bells. The west front includes sculptures of angels climbing to heaven on two stone ladders, representing Jacob's Ladder.
