Built me a cabin in Utah
Marry me a wife, catch a rainbow trout
Have a bunch of kids who call me pa
That must be what it's all about
That must be what it's all about.

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...
Kaş (pronounced 'Kash') is a small fishing, diving, yachting and tourist town, and a district of Antalya Province of Turkey. As a tourist town it is unspoiled.
The town of Kaş has a hellenistic theatre and many other places of historical interest; and it has spots of natural beauty, including excellent beaches, and a number of interesting caves, some of them underwater.
The mountains behind the coast offer countless places for trekking, climbing and canyoning.
The ruins of the antique cities of Komba (in the village of Gömbe), Nisa, Kandyba, Phellos, Istlada, Apollonia, Isinda and Kyaenai.
A popular excursion from Kaş is Kekova island in the neighbouring district of Demre. Here in the magnificent bays you will see a surprising variety of wrecks of ancient ships and ancient cities sunk under the sea by earthquakes over the centuries. The sea is so perfectly clear that the details of city buildings such as staircases or columns can be seen from the boat.
The area is ideal for sea kayaking. In December 2006 Kaş was added to the specially protected Kekova marine area in order to preserve its rich biodiversity.
c1918 War memorial stained glass window - St George between Victory & Valour "..... dedicated by the 7th (Princes Royals) Dragoon Guards to the glory of God and in affectionate remembrance of their comrades who lost their lives in the service of their King and country during the Great War 1914 - 1918".
The Guard's Regimental badges are shown in the traceries. - Norwich cathedral
This is St Johns Cathedral again.
The circular window over the front door.
The desired end result was enhanced texture in the cathedral, while leaving the new building and sky as original, as it would look horrible with enhanced contrast (texture).
When the shot was taken, the sky was blown out totally white.
Step 1 - add a gradient layer and applied a blue sky by:
a/ use the magic wand to select the white sky
b/ select the gradient tool and select a suitable gradient which would provide an appropriate blue and natural look to the blue fade.
Step 2 - copy the new shot with blue sky to a new image and dulpicate the new image background layer to a new layer.
Step 3 - back on the 1st image,
a/ use Nik to increase the contrast and tone slightly to a level that highlighted the texture without looking ridiculous.
b/ drag the 2nd image (non contrast) background layer copy into the 1st image as a new layer, and make sure it is on top.
c/ at this point, the soft image being on top will block out the lower contrasty image
d/ use the eraser tool and a soft edge brush, remove the soft top layer pixels only above the cathedral stones
The end result is half the top soft layer of sky and new building, and half the bottom layer visible where the cathedral is.
Holy Theme
Installed in 1641, the work of local artist, François Bierges, this is one of three roae windows in Auch cathedral.
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!
For Window Wednesdays and a MOOC class project.
Here we have two glass windows with reflections and a window that has been bricked up.
The whole of the scene has been camouflaged in a blanket of shadows from a couple of trees near the building.
Captured with iPhone and Hipstamatic's Oggl App, using the Lucifer VI lens and Rock BW-11 Film combination.
The contrast of light and dark were very extreme and this combo really caught that scene well.
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.
Does this count as a window? I came across a picture of a vintage card not too long ago, and they had suspended a disc on a thread, and, when spun, it was really neat. This is my version of that idea. (The middle shot was actually taken first and received too much backlight - which is why it's so dark. The Blue Butterfly is the most true color match to the card in real life.)

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.
