The west window contains the broadest mixture of different periods of glass in the church, mostly heraldic glass from the Tudor era to the mid 18th century, but also including a few much earlier medieval shields and other elements too. It is however a frustratingly difficult window to study, requiring access to the bell ringing chamber to see it properly, and even then the lower half is largely obscured by a wire mesh guard and protective frame to protect it from any bellringers who might venture too close!
St Mary's at Preston on Stour is a gem of a church. The tower and nave are mostly the original late medieval work but with significant remodeling in 1752-64 (by Edward Woodward of Chipping Campden) The chancel was entirely rebuilt at this time, though the effect is surprisingly homogeneous.
Inside the chancel are several wall-mounted monuments of 17th & 18th century date, but it is the stained glass which takes centre stage, with a magnificent collection of Continental roundels in the east window, and two superb and extremely unusual side windows by William Price from the 1750s, with standing saints flanked by an eccentric collection of portrait medallions.
There is further notable glass in the west window under the tower, which seems to be indigenous work of 15th & 16th century dates, possibly original to the church, though sadly difficult to see without special access to the bell ringing chamber.
Dundalk overwhelm Bangor in All Ireland Final
by Roger Corbett
Bangor’s amazing run in the All Ireland Junior Cup came to an abrupt end when they were comprehensively beaten by Dundalk, eventually losing by 55-5.
Where do you start when trying to relate and absorb the events of Saturday’s final at Chambers Park? Firstly, congratulations to worthy winners Dundalk who nullified the Bangor attack, then went on to produce some stunning plays which racked up no less than 8 tries, each by a different player. For Bangor’s part, they were unable to respond to the intensity of Dundalk’s game, and lacked the cutting edge which their opponents used to great effect.
The day started full of promise, as the strong support from North Down made their way to Chambers Park in Portadown, knowing Bangor would be fielding their best team. Once again, the pundits had Bangor as the underdogs – just as they had done so in the previous three rounds! In confounding the experts earlier, Bangor produced some awesome performances against top quality opposition to get to the final. Dundalk had produced some convincing wins in the early rounds of the competition, but had struggled to get past CIYMS in the semi-final, just managing to squeeze ahead at the second time of asking. However, with a number of key players returning to the side in time for this game, they were now back at full strength and would be a formidable force to contend with.
Having won the toss, captain Jamie Clegg elected to play into the stiff wind in the first half. For the first 5 minutes, Bangor doggedly retained possession and tried to play their way into Dundalk’s half through a series of determined forward moves. However, little ground was made and, when possession was finally lost, the Dundalk back line produced a burst that simply cut through the Bangor defence resulting in an easy touch down under Bangor’s posts for a 7-0 lead.
Bangor stuck to their plan and slowly, but patiently, got their attack moving forward, eventually winning a penalty to the left of Dundalk’s posts, but Mark Widdowson’s kick into the wind drifted just wide of the mark.
The contrast in play between the two teams was becoming clear, with Bangor trying to keep the ball close while Dundalk were throwing it wide. The latter strategy was proving to be the more effective as, with 20 minutes gone, a quick back line move with players looping around resulted in an overlap on the right wing which gave a clear run in to again, score under the posts. A further 9 minutes later, they did it again and, although the Bangor defence had sensed the danger and moved across to cover it, their tackling let them down allowing Dundalk to get over in the right hand corner, taking their lead to 19-0.
By now, Bangor were trying to hang on until half time when they could regroup and come out with the wind at their backs. Dundalk, on the other hand were anxious to press home their advantage and give them a more comfortable lead. To Bangor’s credit, although camped on their own line for lengthy spells, they dug in and managed to hold on until the referee’s half time whistle.
As the teams reappeared from the dressing rooms, it was obvious Bangor were ringing the changes, particularly in the backs. With the wind advantage having lessened considerably, Bangor got the second half underway. It was now Dundalk’s turn to adopt the slow, steady approach, just as Bangor had done earlier. However, their more confident off-loading and support play was, once again, taking play deep into Bangor’s territory. Frustration at not being able to gain possession and take play out of their danger area eventually resulted in a yellow card for Clegg after a succession of penalties. Dundalk kicked the penalty to touch, won their lineout and drove for the line. Although initially held up by the Bangor defence, Dundalk’s repeated drives were eventually rewarded with another converted score, extending their lead to 26-0.
From the touchline, the Bangor faithful had felt that if their players had managed to score first in the second half, they may have been able to mount a fight-back and close the gap to their opponents. As it was, this Dundalk score simply bolstered their confidence and pushed Bangor deeper into trouble. With Bangor still a man down, Dundalk added to the score with a penalty and then another score in the corner. Everything was now working for the Leinster men, as even the difficult touchline conversion into the biting wind successfully split the posts, bringing the score to 36-0.
As the game entered the final quarter, and with Dundalk all but holding the cup, Bangor were now on the ropes. By contrast, the Dundalk players were in almost total control, and were not going to slow down now. In a 10 minute spell, they ran in a further 3 tries, making the scoreline 55-0. By now, any sense of dejection the Bangor supporters may have been feeling was now moved to feelings of sympathy for their players. However, pride was at stake and once again Bangor rallied as the game entered its final minutes. At last, the forwards got within striking distance of the Dundalk line and, although their repeated attacks were repelled, they finally managed to do what their opponents had done so effectively, and quickly passed the ball wide to Davy Charles. Even though they were 55 points ahead, the Dundalk defence made Charles work hard to drive through the tackles and score Bangor’s consolation try, bringing the final score to 55-5.
From Bangor’s point of view, the final score doesn’t tell the whole story of this competition. While the final may have resulted in a sad anti-climax for Bangor, the remarkable journey to get there will be remembered for some time. On the day, Dundalk were by far the better side, and Bangor would have to concede that their game was not up to the usual standard. However, there is no doubt the experience of competing at this level is something to relish and the goal now will be to secure a top four place in the league and try again next year.
Everybody at the club has nothing but the highest respect and praise for what has been achieved this year by not just the 1sts, but all the senior teams, and one poor result isn’t going to change that – the welcome at Upritchard Park for the returning players is testament to that. With that in mind, the players now need to put this disappointment behind them and provide the best possible response against a struggling Portadown side at home in the league next Saturday.

In front of a big crowd at Chambers Park on Saturday afternoon Dundalk delivered a stunning and ruthless display to see off the challenge of Bangor and capture the All Ireland Junior Cup title for the very first time.
Three first half tries had them firmly in control at 19-0 ahead having played with the elements at the Portadown venue during the first half and while the wind dropped somewhat after half time the Dundalk intensity most certainly didn’t as they cut loose scoring five more tries.
Dundalk returned to a heroes welcome at their Mill Road clubhouse on Saturday night after a display of pure brilliance throughout the afternoon.
Precision, pace and skill from the Louth men from start to finish left Bangor playing second fiddle for long periods.

I got caught in a heavy shower while out taking some shots at night. The rain ruined a lot of my shots, but at least it offered up a few different shots as well.

Friendfield Village is a former slave village located on Bernard Baruch's Hobcaw Barony. This 17,500 acre estate is composed of many different former rice plantations to create one enormous landholding. The name Hobcaw is from the Waccamaw Indians who once very abundant in these parts and it means "between the waters."
"Friendfield Village is between Kings Highway and Hobcaw Road. It has five unused houses, a church and a dispensary. There are several antebellum slave cabins built prior to the Civil War. One is deteriorated. Two others were remodeled in 1905. The Friendfield Church, which was built between 1890 and 1900, is a rectangular building with board-and-batten siding, a gabled metal roof, and a pyramidal spire. This was remodeled under the direction of Bernard Baruch. It is typically of South Carolina lowcounty, freedmen’s chapels. The Friendfield Dispensary was built under the direction of Bernard Baruch as school on Bellefield Plantation for the children of white employees. About 1935, it was moved next to Fairfield Church. Two additional cottages in Friendfield Village were built around 1935."
I’ve tried many techniques and different types of tools, on different mediums while creating. I absolutely love exploring and experimenting when it comes to my creative ways of self-expression. Just recently I fell in love with watercolor. This painting method is diverse, hard to learn and very hard to master, that’s why I love practicing it and crave to get better at it. I just admire the nature of paint to make shapes, forms and tones with just a few touches of a brush, it’s very relaxing and enjoyable. Also, I just had a big co-operative project with my mathematics teacher. The goal of the project was to express the beauty of the infinity concept. I came up with a colorful, expressive sketch which in a week turned into a big graffiti piece in our mathematics classroom. It was a big challenge for me, because I hadn’t had a lot of practice with spray paint before, but I acted on my intuition most of the time. I consider it a success and a big step out of my comfort zone. I’m very grateful for my teacher who gave me this opportunity to express myself and share my creation with class friends, teachers and student generations to come. If I had to name a few artists, whom I look up to, it would be James Arthur, Vince Low, Banksy, MADc, Smug, Nychos, Agnes Cecile, Ester Roi, Ondrash, Joel Robison and Chiara Bautista.

"Produce four very different portrait images (2male, 2 female subjects) which, using a variety of daylight conditions, locations and light modification & manipulation techniques, convey very different subjects & mood."
This is a daylight portrait of my friend Louise outside our church on Sunday morning. The weather was very grey and overcast which made the light very soft and even. I used a 50mm f1.7 prime lens to get the lovely shallow depth of field.
A colour version of this image can be seen here:
Different tree frog from past two pictures, different storaro background colour from past two picturess, and in a shocking departure from the past two pictures this is a NOT a snake plant- it's a Dracaena sanderiana (Lucky Bamboo). Look at me mixing things up like a cuisinart.

-Sunpak 433d snooted with storaro orange gel on black background from camera left.
-Bare SB-28 above and behind for hair light (bald palate light?)
-Triggered with rf602's.

We have different moms. That's how I got to be so much more attractive than Raul.
By the way, poor bastard's in way over his head.
I forgot about the chemical leak from the previous shot..which is why I have mad crazy dots going up the side of the picture. Some people dig those, some don't. The ambient temp was about 74...and I held the picture under dark cloth and in my hands while it developed. What I noticed, besides the fact that my composition was boring as all hell was that there were less specks or tiny white dots than my previous shots where the ambient temp was lower and I threw it into a dark box. Also---this is the "warmest" tone shot I have had with this film so far. Shot from inside my car, sitting in the shade. NO ND filter...dial all the way to the dark side.

"What we are really trying to get to is a situation where you understand the other side’s fears, hopes, and aspirations, and the interests which underlie their political positions, and they understand yours, so that when you sit around the negotiating table you can look at the problem as something which you have solved jointly and not in opposition to each other."

This was earlier than the other two shots, and the moon looked beautiful, although on these photos, it looks like the sun! It was so bright, that you can see the shadows on the field...
It's different... it's unusual... I like it.
