While taking photos throughout the city yesterday, I was obsess with the reflections in the windows. Windows are the views to the world :)

hooray for cheesy water-on-the-window shots!

Today is day 11 of my 365 project, and I managed to get my post up early...sweet! So far as a result of not feeling well and extremely cold temperatures I have had to post items from my archive of photos.

Window dressing

The 'Clutterbuck' window in Newark Park National Trust.

Sir Nicholas Poyntz, an attendant to Henry VIII, chose to build his state-of-the-art hunting lodge on this Cotswold ridge in c.1550. The dramatic and secluded landscape was perfect for hosting guests in style.

Each subsequent owner made the house their own, embellishing it to keep up with the fashions of the day and to impress guests. The Clutterbuck family in particular made their mark working with various architects including James Wyatt who installed the eye-catching stained-glass in 1817 into the Cotswold stone bay window frames which date from around 1550.

Window shopping saves money, so I´ve been told...

Thames Water ( then located in Roseberry Avenue ) commissioned the striking East window to be erected by A.E. Buss of Goddard & Gibbs in 1962. The window depicts the risen glory of Christ ascending. The grey logo of Thames Water is central at the base and commemorates the building of the New River, between 1604 and 1613 by Sir Hugh Myddelton. Dame Alice Owen, a great local benefactor, is depicted on the left with the coat of arms of the Corporation of the City of London (who remain patrons of the parish today). To the right is The coat of arms of Islington and a picture of the Angel Inn one time first coaching house on leaving the city.

I loved the light coming in through this window in the Chapter house. It has a certain glow.

Display for ToroLUG at Sherway Gardens Lego Store

This is the display for September 2012 at Sherway Gardens. The majority of the display was built by Rook, I built the streetcar and subway. I hope people will appreciate a bit of local Toronto flavour for the Community Window this month.

My widest lens in my kit is the 14-42 kit zoom, unfortunately I do not own an ND filter in that size. So I did my best to get the longest exposure I could which was only 0.6 seconds long.
