Testing out some Kodak Double-X that I got in a film trade with emulsivefilm.
Also testing this Takumar 55mm 1.8 on my Minolta XD body. That was before I got the Pentax SL.

East window at Ibstock by John Hardman Studios c1894.
The church of St Denis stands in semi isolation on the fringe of the large village of Ibstock. It is an impressive building dating mainly from the 14th century, dominated by a sturdy steeple at the west end. Inside there is a good mixture of glass from late 19th to mid 20th century dates and the building is clearly well used and cared for.
The church is normally locked outside of services, but we were given an especially warm welcome here by the ladies on stewarding duty whilst the church was open for the day.
East window at Sandord St Martin by Michael O'Connor and made by Holland of Warwick 1850, representing Christ between angels and the four Evangelist's emblems.
Apparently this window was nearly removed in the 1970s; when John Piper was commissioned to design a new window for the church it was the then vicar's intention to replace this window. Piper was less keen to discard the window as it was a good example of O'Connor's work, and therefore suggested the north aisle east window instead, which was subsequently installedin 1974.
This is NOT my "Whiskey"; but I actually spotted this cute cat while driving on a very busy street during rush hour high above a two story home, so I jumped out of my car and took his picture from across the street with my 70-300mm VR lens.
This is at a port in Balatonkenese, Hungary. I was having breakfast with my boyfriend when I noticed this nice reflection of clouds and spars in this window. Hope you like it too.
East window installed c1886.
St Peter's at Widmerpool is an elusive building hidden away down a leafy path beyond a cul de sac (with no signs to direct, but if you follow the public footpath you should find it). What we see today is the result of an ambitious Victorian rebuilding (leaving only the medieval tower) with a richly ornamented exterior and gloriously vaulted chancel.
Inside the chancel draws the eye as the liturgical and architectural climax of the building, a beautifully flamboyant piece of Victorian architecture which greatly enlivens the interior the nave by contrast feels rather more serious). There are some rich furnishings and details, though the most notable piece within is the effigy of Harriet Robertson (d.1891), which is very difficult to photograph in the gloomy north-west corner.
I was pleased to find this church open and welcoming on my visit (if initially a little tricky to find!).
Nuremberg also has its share of modern architecture, these windows belonging to the Norikus Highrise complex near the Wöhrder See. Taken on New Years Day 2008.
I saw my daughter looking out the back window a few days ago and thought it made for a great image.
This photo was taken from the side a bit. I was able to correct the trapezoid shape of the window from the odd angle using photoshop's lense correction. There is a horizontal tilt function that allow you to tilt the image in 3D to fix just this sort of issue.
