The skies were very overcast, but enough light came through the stained glass windows of the darkened choir loft of historic St. Anne Church, Mackinac Island. This building dates from 1874, and is a Registered Michigan Historic Site. The parish dates much further back, as the church celebrated it's 300th anniversary in 1992.

 

My wife, the family genealogist, has traced my lineage to my 6th great-grandfather, Jean Baptiste Brillant a surgeon/medic at Fort Mackinac. In July 1752, he married Franciose Itagisse Chretian, a member of the Ojibwa (Chippewa) tribe, at St. Anne Church which was then located at Fort Mackinac. We purchased a disk at the church, containing church records from 1695-1888, which documents my 6th great-grandfather. So, it was kind of an eerie feeling to sit in the darkened church, pondering my ancestors who roamed the Island so long ago.

This window caught my eye as I walked down Pottergate in Norwich. Random traffic cone on display for some curious reason.

Weeping Window is a cascade comprising several thousand handmade ceramic poppies seen pouring from a high window to the ground below . This breathtaking sculpture by artist Paul Cummins and designer Tom Piper was initially conceived as one of the key dramatic sculptural elements in the installation ' Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red ' at the Tower of London in the autumn of 2014. Over the course of their time at the Tower, this sculpture and its companion , entitled ' Wave ' were gradually surrounded by a vast field of ceramic poppies, each one planted by a volunteer in memory of the life of a British and Colonial soldier lost during the First World War. In their original setting they captured the public imagination and were visited by over five million people.

Many churches have traditional stained glass windows. This is an interesting alternative. Actually, the church is an old building with a newer addition which is where this window and others like it is.
