Window frost at twilight this morning. Shot with my old, manual focus Micro-Nikkor 55/2.8 @ f/2.8 or f/4. The nearby blue photo is a close-up from the center of this scene.
Christmas may have just recently ended, but since I'm finding myself very much still in the Holiday spirit, I've decided to keep posting my Holiday themed pictures until New Years. That's when the tree comes down, and the Christmas season traditionally comes to a close. So, please bear with me for just a few more days as I slowly wind down from my favorite time of the year.
This is a detail shot from one of the windows at Macy's department store at Herald Square in Manhattan.
Magic Hour - In photograhy, the Magic Hour (or Golden Hour) is the time right around sunrise and sunset. Please take a few minutes to read this article on the topic. Your assignment is to take a photograph that takes advantage of this magical time of day.

Window 16: King Solomon sits in Judgement Hall
King Solomon sits in judgement hall, to settle a dispute between two women. Only the foot is visible of the living child whom they both claim. This judgement, by which life is saved, has probably been transposed with the judgement in window 14, in which the punishment is death. Both windows would thus serve as pendants to the central judgement.
Detail in the tracery.
Fairford Church Windows
Text taken from 'St Mary's Church, Fairford, Gloucestershire'. 4th ed 2001. Revised by Geoff Hawkes and Kenneth Munn.
Since 1986 there has been a programme of restoration of the windows by the Barley Studio in York.
The twenty-eight windows have been used to express and teach by pictures the Christian faith for nearly 500 years. No other parish church in the land has retained a complete set of late medieval glass. The plan of these windows illustrated the Christian faith as in the pages of a picture book. Opposite to the twelve prophets, who foretold the faith, stand twelve apostles, each beneath a sentence of the Apostles' Creed, which expresses the faith. Four evangelists, who recorded the faith, are opposite four doctors of the Church, who expounded the faith. Above stand twelve martyrs, or confessors, who suffered for the faith; opposite are twelve enemies of the faith. Within the chancel screens is shown, in the Life of Christ, the foundation of our faith. In the bottom centre panel of the East window stands Our Lord being judged by Pilate. In the West Window is shown Christ judging the whole world.
Based on the dream of St John the Divine, told in the Book of Revelation, this window, installed in the church of St Mary & St Nicolas, Spalding, Lincolnshire in 1951, is by Walter Percival Starmer of Bushey. It is in memory of Dr Thomas Driffill and his wife, Sarah and was given by their daughter, Rebecca Fletcher Driffill.
Pour reprendre un peu le chemin de la photo après un arrêt depuis ce dernier été.
Avec mon obsession des fenêtres... :)
Millennium Window, St John's Cathedral, Brisbane.
Try Viewing On Black
This amazing stained glass window is by artist Scott Maxwell. It was dedicated in 2002 by Queen Elizabeth II.
HDR from 7 exposures: +3, +2, +1, 0, -2, -4, -6 EV. If anyone ever doubts the usefulness of HDR, this photo should be enough to convince them. There's not a single shot in this sequence where you can see detail in both the window and the stonework. Compare to a photo from the cathedral's own website.
