Stained glass window in the Basilica Notre Dame de L'Assomption or as it is better known, Notre dame de Nice.
I really did like this one, with its elaborate scroll-work around the central cross-and-flowers design element. This was based on a design found in a local church.
Took a shot of this great window in an 200 year old country-house. The first thing I thought, that Tim Burton must have grown up in a room with such an window ;-)
Just love it! Although I could be scary for the kid living in this room...

Porque no supiste entender a mi corazón
lo que había en él porque no tuviste el valor de ver quien soy
porque no escuchas lo que esta tan cerca de ti
sólo el ruido de afuera y yo
que estoy a un lado desaparezco para ti
No voy a llorar y decir que no merezco esto
porque es probable que lo merezco pero no lo quiero
por eso me voy que lástima pero adiós
me despido de ti y me voy
que lástima pero adiós me despido de ti
Porque sé que me espera algo mejor
alguien que sepa darme amor
de ese que endulza la sal y hace que salga el sol
yo que pensé nunca me iría de ti
que es amor del bueno de toda la vida
pero hoy entendí que no hay suficiente para los dos
No voy a llorar y decir que no merezco esto
porque es probable que lo merezco pero no lo quiero
por eso me voy que lástima pero adiós
me despido de ti y me voy
que lástima pero adiós me despido de ti
Me voy que lástima pero adiós
me despido de ti y me voy
que lástima pero adiós
me despido de ti y me voy
que lástima pero adiós
me despido de ti
me voy
que lástima pero adiós
me despido de ti
me voy

Read that this month's 2009/365 theme was THROUGH THE WINDOWS AND DOORS OF OUR LIVES so just pointed camera at the window to show what I see when I sit at my desk!
DIFFERENT WINDOWS WITH ISLAMIC ARCHITECTURE & DECORATION IN MOSQUES IN OLD HISTORIC CAIRO MOSQUES,, CAIRO EOS CANON ,, 2016
Window at the Sacred Heart Roman Catholic church in Bilton, Warwickshire.
This composite panel was made up of 'leftover' pieces of one of the former side windows of the nave, displaced when the church was extended in 1990. Other parts have been incorporated into windows two similar windows nearby.
Originally built in 1958 on a traditional plan with an oblong nave and chancel in one chamber, the church was dramatically re-organised and extended in the early 1990s under the guidance of Fr Paul Chamberlain, wherein the axis of the church was re-orientated by 90 degrees with a centralised granite block altar in what was the heart of the old nave. The 'south' nave wall was removed to allow an extended aisle and ambulatory on this side. The former main entrance narthex was blocked up to create what is now the Blessed Sacrament chapel.
One of the most dramatic innovations in the re-ordered church is the full immersion fount, a cruciform marble pool set into the floor before the altar, evoking the earliest method of Christian Baptism by immersion in the River Jordan.
The two main stained glass windows on either side of the old nave were removed and re-sited in truncated form in the new extension, and in the place of the northern one a large crucifix (painted by Fr Chamberlain) has been set up as a focus behind the new altar. The six high windows on this wall are the latest addition to the church and are my own work from 1999.
A window with obscured view of the opposite roofline from one on the rooms in the Grand Connaught Rooms in London. The building was originally part of the Freemasons Hall next door, but was divided in 1908 to provide elegant dining rooms. Having faded somewhat during the late 20th century, the GCR has been refurbished as conference and banqueting room. Sadly I was only there for the former, though the lunch was very good. The loos are the most distant I've encountered at a conference venue requiring several doors and flights of stairs, a map, asked directions and a modicum of luck.

Millennium window in the south aisle by Andrew Taylor, an attractive display of rich colour incorporating scenes of rural life.
St Mary's at Shawbury was my last church of the day, but as it was now nearly 6pm hopes of getting inside were fading, but the door yielded nonetheless!
It is marked by a particularly fine late medieval pinnacled west tower. Much of the building is otherwise late Norman, including the nave arcades with some interesting carved capitals. The font is Norman too, a tub carved with purely non figurative ornament including rope molding.
The wide interior culminates in a Perpendicular chancel with a plain glazed east window, but nearby is one window crammed full of early 15th century fragments including bits of an Annunciation and canopywork. The modern window in the south aisle with rural, secular imagery really grew on me.
