We sit in a church for the Weight Watchers meeting, and there's always some great light coming through the windows. So I took this picture, and the woman three seats away said, "Overexposed." And I sort of sneered at her. And then she said, "Whenever I have shots like that, I always overexpose and then under process." I told her all my settings were manual and that my camera was a digital and that I did pretty well.
During the meeting she offered some advice to another WW member, and I recognized that voice. I got up and sat next to her and looked her in the eye. She said, "I know you!" and then we hugged. Turns out she was a friend of a friend, and we once spent a week in Martha's Vineyard together many years ago. She took a photograph of me on the beach there, reading a book, with cows marching by. She always took her cows and photographed them.
It's one of my favorite pictures. I loved seeing her again.
A dilapidated house on the way home from work. I stopped to see how close I could get in the evening light and still make it compelling or interesting. Only a small portion of the house was getting sun so I concentrated on that small portion.
Does it work? Is it interesting, does it capture what the house is about?
This isn't 100% my usual style, but it isn't as far off as the bear yesterday. I'm a little meh about the composition.
PP was a contrast bump selective sat/desat - not full B&W just a little bump to make the sunlight pop.
I got out the 28-135 since it is very hard to find good places to pull off the road to take pictures (with the snow piled up), interestingly, in this case, I found a good place to pull off and take pictures so I didn't need the extra length.
In 2017, Laws Stained Glass Studios installed (9) opalescent glass windows at The ConneXion Church in Savannah, GA. The windows (size 40" wide x 82" high) did not have artwork or a memorial plate, but a decorative leaf design in the center.
Laws began the installation by removing the existing Krinkle glass (a thin fiber glass) and the existing aluminum frame. New white aluminum frames were installed into the masonry opening. On the interior of the frame, the leaded glass window was set. On the exterior, 1/4" Lucite acrylic was placed as the protective covering.
I love how these random patterns of ice between the two panes of window form cool shapes like trees.
Victorian window in the south aisle at Measham.
St Laurence's at Measham sits tucked back from the town's main street with an open space in front, allowing a good view of the western side (the rest is harder to appreciate being somewhat hemmed in). The most noticeable feature is the tower dating from sometime after 1733 (according to Pevsner). The rest of the building is of 14th century date and unusually appears as simple a spacious nave and aisles, since there is no structural distinction of the chancel, the east window being where one would normally expect to see a chancel arch.
There is some interesting glass, a collection of medieval fragments are arranged into a collage at the west end of the south aisle, whilst many other windows have a patchwork of brightly coloured late Georgian glass in their traceries. Some of these were casting attractive colours across the interior when we called.
I believe this church is usually open to visitors within reasonable hours. We called rather late in the day (after 6pm) but luckily encountered the vicar who was about to lock up and kindly left the church open a little longer for us.
#1465 - 2012 Day 4: I like windows. This one is part of the building that houses my local Indian takeaway. I've passed it thousands of times but have never seen it in twilight with these colours.
Light refreshes, and there is always a new subject in the same old places.
This is a window of a house,and not only a window of a house,but also a window of a inner heart,hoping the power from God.
The St. Michael and St. Gudula Cathedral is a Roman Catholic church at the Treurenberg hill in Brussels, Belgium. In French, it is called Cathédrale Saints-Michel-et-Gudule and in Dutch Sint-Michiels- en Sint-Goedelekathedraal, usually shortened to "Sint-Goedele".
In 1047, Lambert II, Count of Leuven founded a chapter in this church and organized the transportation of the relics of Saint Gudula, housed before then in Saint Gaugericus Church on Saint-Géry Island. The patron saints of the church, archangel St. Michael and the martyr St. Gudula, are also the patron saints of the city of Brussels.
In the thirteenth century, the cathedral was renovated in the Gothic style. The choir was constructed between 1226 and 1276. The façade was completed in the mid-fifteenth century.
It is an archiepiscopal cathedral of the Archbishop of Mechlin-Brussels, the Primate of Belgium, currently Archbishop André-Mutien Léonard. It is located in the national capital and therefore often used for Catholic ceremonies of national interest, such as royal marriages and state funerals.
The south tower contains a 49-bell carillon by the Royal Eijsbouts bell foundry on which Sunday concerts are often given.

I walked all over Beacon Hill in the rain this past week. It really was fun because it wasn't raining too hard. Daffodils were everywhere in the window boxes. I guess every one dressed up their homes for Easter. Since the only gardens are the ones "hidden" in back yards, window boxes are "the thing." These bright and cheery daffodils (even in the rain) are only two of the ones I saw.
