Elliot: “Hah! Nope. No chance. My allotment of one day’s stupidity is up. You know, that Magpie Callaghan in the poster is actually quite smart. That’s one of the qualities that I admire about her. It reads on the poster: ‘Music is a fool's best friend. It allows you to express yourself with beauty, while keeping your big, stupid foot out of your mouth.’ That’s just the way I think as well! The countless embarrassing situations I could have avoided if I had just kept my mouth shut and made music instead…”
Female photographer: “Hah! At last I totally understand what you’re talking about!”
Elliot: “Haa haa. I mean that music as well as all other forms of art is the best way of expressing yourself. If something sucks, you put it into a song or a canvas, and nobody takes offence, ‘cause it’s art. They don’t take it as an offense even if you direct it at them. It’s still art to them. It’s that simple. The world would be so much better a place to live in if people did more art and just kept their mouths shut most of the time. That’s what I truly believe.”
The Divinity School is a medieval building and room in the Perpendicular style in Oxford, England, part of the University of Oxford. Built between 1427 and 1483, it is the oldest surviving purpose-built building for university use, specifically for lectures, oral exams and discussions on theology. It is no longer used for this purpose, although Oxford does offer degrees in Theology and Religion taught by its Faculty of Theology and Religion.
The ceiling consists of very elaborate lierne vaulting with bosses (455 of them), designed by William Orchard in the 1480s.
The building is physically attached to the Bodleian Library (with Duke Humfrey's Library on the first floor above it), and is opposite the Sheldonian Theatre where students matriculate and graduate. At the far end from the Bodleian Library entrance, a door leads to Convocation House (built 1634–7).[1]
The worst Band promos i have ever taken. Was late evening and had bout 10 mins to get some photos, we was on our way down to an empty railway track to get some shots but they got a call from the promoter and they had to go fetch a bass amp for the bands of the gig wouldn't go on so yer bad times. Hopefully get some more better shots next week some time.
My wife and I explored around Rochester's Highland Park area while on our way to see our friends new baby. While turning around at the Colgate Rochester Divinity School I saw these footprints in the snow and immediately thought of the title, so had to shoot it.

The Divinity School is a medieval building and room in the Perpendicular style in Oxford, England, part of the University of Oxford. Built between 1427 and 1483, it is the oldest surviving purpose-built building for university use, specifically for lectures, oral exams and discussions on theology. It is no longer used for this purpose, although Oxford does offer degrees in Theology and Religion taught by its Faculty of Theology and Religion.
The ceiling consists of very elaborate lierne vaulting with bosses (455 of them), designed by William Orchard in the 1480s.
The building is physically attached to the Bodleian Library (with Duke Humfrey's Library on the first floor above it), and is opposite the Sheldonian Theatre where students matriculate and graduate. At the far end from the Bodleian Library entrance, a door leads to Convocation House (built 1634–7).[1]
The ceremonial entrance to the Sheldonian Theatre is on the south side, facing the Divinity School in whose north wall Sir Christopher Wren made a door through which processions could pass from the Divinity School to his new Theatre. Above the door from the Divinity School is a monogram of Wren's initials, and under the arch an inscription in Greek painted on an open book, taken from St Luke's Gospel, Chapter 2, verse 46, the English translation of which reads:
They found him in the temple sitting in the midst of the doctors.
Detail of one of the three apse windows that constitute the first major stained glass commission of John Piper & Patrick Reyntiens, executed 1954-6 and portraying nine aspects of Christ's divinity.
The also constitute the first major flowering of a new, contemporary approach to stained glass design, radically different from anything produced in this country before, and therefore a milestone in the evolution of modern stained glass in Britain.
This was my second visit to Oundle School Chapel, an impressive building designed by Sir Arthur Blomfield in 1922-3 and standing completely detached in splendid isolation in the grounds of Oundle School. The chapel was built in a late Perpendicular Gothic style with a nave flanked by low aisles and a tall clerestorey that floods the interior with light..The east end is formed by a polygonal apse surrounded with a low ambulatory (forming a hidden corridor within).
The interior is vast and spacious as a grand school chapel should be, but fine though the architecture is it is the explosions of coloured light that punctuate the aisles and the deep, brooding tones of the glass in the apse that draw the eye here. Oundle's chapel is a treasure house of modern stained glass, from the three altar windows by John Piper & Patrick Reyntiens (their first ever commission dating from 1954-6, often considered the first windows in a modern style in Britain) to the extensive scheme of aisle windows recently commissioned from Mark Angus and installed in 2002-5.
Piper & Reyntiens' apse windows are quite unique, and more figurative than so much of their more familiar later work. The images represent nine aspects of Christ, each personifying a different aspect of his divinity. The colouring is rich and dense and the stylisation bold, many of the faces being more reminiscent of some powerful tribal mask than anything seen in a British church before. It took great vision and courage to commission these windows (Piper & Reyntiens had little experience at this stage and no previous collaboration to their names) and is perhaps symptomatic of postwar optimism and a more forward thinking approach than is often seen in today's commissions in glass. John Betjeman was so impressed on first seeing these works that he stated that the chapel would become a place of pilgrimage to art lovers, and so it should be to anyone with an interest in modern glass.
The aisle windows by Mark Angus are no less richly coloured, and some (at the west end) are equally figurative but most use a more abstract symbolic language. Much of the drawing has a rather charming, almost childlike naivety and the designs are in many cases kept refreshingly simple, allowing the various bold colours to dominate these smaller apertures.
Oundle School Chapel is a must for anyone with an interest in contemporary stained glass and the School is to be commended for its vision in making such a statement in its choice of artists. The chapel may be open to visitors much of the time but it might be advisable to check if making a special journey to see it.
Divinity saw my little Zed and immediatly adopted him as her own. He has gone with us each time we do a Dr appt or procedure for my dad but he just never came out of my purse for a picture - so he debuts today :D
Lots of big windows allowed for natural light. The library upstairs especially needed it as no naked flame was allowed. Reading and studying was done by daylight only.
