Stained glass window by John Hayward, given in 1970 by William Thomas Hall d1975 in memory of his wife Minnie.
The theme of the design, suggested by the donor, is peace through Christ - the artist has used the story of Christ walking on the water to express the idea of order being brought out of chaos. The ship is a frail barque amid a storm. and Saint Peter sinking represents man reaching out to Christ who saves him. Calm water in the blessed harbour and new growth against the full sun above. - Church of St Wulfram, Grantham, Lincolnshire

A couple of hours spent in York, 1st ever session doing a bit of street photography :)
The Doors made the "Morrison Hotel" album. Well, I got the Windows XP Hotel. It doesn't have the same kind of klang, though.
Reminds me of flying Windows XP logo screen saver, don't you think?
Those of you living in Helsinki: Can you guess what hotel? :)
Ostrobotnia Student Association Building.
"The architectural office of Palmqvist and Sjöström got off to a flying start when it won all three prizes, and even received the lone purchase, in the design competition for the building of the Ostrobothnian Student Association in 1910. Born in Kalajoki and educated in Oulu, Palmqvist’s own roots lay in Ostrobothnia.
The Ostrobothnian Student Association´s building, familiarly known as ‘Botta’, represents a clear return to 19th century ideas. Its symmetrical and robust cubic appearance, prominent cornice, slightly retracted top storey and handsome gambrel roof are features that became increasingly common in the 1910s and 1920s, ones particularly typical of architecture in Etu-Töölö. The judicious use of red granite as a component in the façades clearly marks the building as a continuation of the art nouveau era. Particularly noteworthy as well are the playful tops of the half-columns on the main façade featuring various pipers. Following the principles of classicism, the columns indicate the principal interior space of the building, in this case, the ballroom, which probably also explains the choice of pipers as decoration."

In the furtherst room from the entrance of the small museum inside the Bled Castle there's this little window with a view directly towards the islet in lake Bled. I took another picture from this same place in wintertime.

The glass in the windows of the old café on Llandudno pier was that bubbly old rippled sort. The morning winter sun doesn't shine on the beautiful façade of the seafront hotels, but I loved the pastel shades I saw through the two panes of looking glass.
