A re-edit of the last shot but in the usual square format.
I couldn't decide which to upload so here's both.
I'll take one down at some point.
The majestic north transept window, 67 feet by 24 feet (20.4 m × 7.3 m), is one of the largest stained glass windows in the world. The upper portion depicts the Coronation of Mary after her Assumption. The lower portion is a depiction of the Ecumenical Council of Ephesus in 431 AD that proclaimed Mary the 'Theotokos' (God-Bearer or Mother of God). Below are saints noted for their Marian studies and devotion. The window was created by Mayer and Company (Mayer'sche Hofkunstanstalt) of Munich, Germany, and installed in 1911.
A brochure of the Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption in Covington, Kentucky USA mentions that the sanctuary is adorned with 82 windows made in Munich by Mayer Studios. The windows of the south nave depict the events in the life of the child Jesus; on the north, the adult Jesus. Above, the clerestory windows depict the apostles, saints, and early doctors of the Church.

It took me a while to "arrive" after returning from my six months long South-East-Asia trip. Loads of paperwork and social responsibilities kept me busy. Additionally, after a half year of shooting hundreds of images per day, I enjoyed not using my camera for a bit.
It took eight weeks until I started to feel the creativity flowing through my venes again. I have been shooting a lot more during the past two weeks and I love it.
Shooting has become a part of my daily routine again and thats good. I missed it.

Best On Black. Another View of Mendocino Village. Taken from an upstairs window in the apartment I was staying in earlier last month.The view is South East from the center of town. This is classic Mendocino. The 19th century character of the village is preserved in the center of town. I was struck by the beautiful morning light the day after an evening of soaking rain. This image is my favorite of my Mendocino series, and it captures the magic light and air of this beautiful place. It's clearly my favorite North Coast destination, and this apartment provides a window to it's core.
The windows and lace shown in today's post are found in the older section of Sheboygan's John Michael Kohler Art Center. I am attracted by their simple beauty.
Just playing around with some natural light shots.
For this one I had the model in front of a window. It gave some nice diffuse light. I kinda like it!
All thoughts and comments are greatly appreciated!
I still occasionally stop by this group of abandoned houses for a shot or two. On this day, I was interested in windows.
