I suppose that a outdoor window washing qualifies as a significant
event to a cat. We use a simple mixture for washing our windows. It
certainly saves on cost of glass cleaner and perhaps even does a
better job.
- 1 part ammonia
- 1 part vinegar
- several parts water
Horizontal windows in a row house across the street from the Back Bay Fens contrast with the vertical windows in a nearby apartment building. (The apparent "jaggedness" of the vertical windows is simply sheets of green plastic irregularly affixed to the building.)
This was taken through the a window in the Liverpool Tate. Its pretty much SOOC apart from a small crop
York Minster, South Transept. The outer petals of the Rose Window are red and white roses (the houses of York and Lancaster) and the work of 16th century Flemish glass-painters. The glass in the centre dates from the 18th century and is in the form of a sunflower from which golden rays radiate from a circle of blue tinted glass. I first took this pic four years ago on my 40d with the 100mm lens. With the 5d mk iii at 300mm the angle, detail and colour rendition is way better and I'm pretty pleased with this one
This window is in memory of Selina Ann Rainbird and Minnie Rainbird,
it is in the church of St Paul, Near Kelvedon Hatch, Essex, England.
For Window Wednesday, the windows of the observation tower at 'The Mo', Sheringham North Norfolk.
Why 'The Mo' you ask. Originally a house called The Mo, named after Morag the daughter of Sir Thomas Digby Piggott. Acquired by the military in 1940 for troops to practice house to house fighting. Badly damaged, it was demolished in 1946.
Became an open air bandstand and playground.
1996 acquired by Anglian Water for a multi million pound sewerage scheme. In return they built an amenity building on top of a massive storm and overflow tank.
The building houses the Sheringham Museum.
The Windows at Arches National Park - here is different angle than most shots taken of this great structure. A stitch of several shots to get the panoramic view, I liked this shot that shows the arches and then the landscape that is to the southeast of the Windows' area. This shot also shows the ledge that you must climb in order to get the classic shot of Turret Arch through the North Window.
This widow is in memory of Edward Compton
Morgan, St Pauls Church, Bentley, near Kelevdon
Hatch, Essex, England.
Shots a little blurry, must have gotten bumped. I really liked the build of the broken window, it was really well executed.

St. John the Baptist's Cathedral Day 10 of our Cosmos tour, October 9, 2012 Lyon France. We did short tour around the city then made our way to Paris.
Cathédrale Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Lyon (English: St. John the Baptist's Cathedral in Lyon) is a Roman Catholic cathedral near the Saone river in Lyon, France, and is the seat of the Archbishop of Lyon.
It was founded by Saint Pothinus and Saint Irenaeus, the first two bishops of Lyon. The cathedral is also known as a "Primatiale" because in 1079 the Pope granted to the archbishop of Lyon the title of Primate of All the Gauls with the legal supremacy over the principal archbishops of the kingdom. It is located in the heart of the old town (Vieux Lyon), less than five minutes away from the banks of the Saone river, with a large plaza in front of it and a metro stop nearby providing easy access to and from the city center.
Begun in the twelfth century on the ruins of a 6th-century church, it was completed in 1476. The building is 80 metres long (internally), 20 metres wide at the choir, and 32.5 metres high in the nave. The cathedral organ was built by Daublaine and Callinet and was installed in 1841 at the end of the apse and had 15 stops. It was rebuilt in 1875 by Merklin-Schütze and given 30 stops, three keyboards of 54 notes and pedals for 27.
Noteworthy are the two crosses to right and left of the altar, preserved since the council of 1274 as a symbol of the union of the churches, and the Bourbon chapel, built by the Cardinal de Bourbon and his brother Pierre de Bourbon, son-in-law of Louis XI, a masterpiece of 15th century sculpture.
The cathedral also has the Lyon Astronomical Clock from the 14th century.
Until the construction of the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière, it was the pre-eminent church in Lyon.
