St Mary's church at Drayton Beachamp (near Aylesbury) is a beautiful largely 15th century church in a peaceful setting with much to offer the visitor. The decorative checquered flint effect on the exterior is particularly attractive.
Inside there are good monuments, specifically two large memorial brasses of knights flanking the altar and an impressive (if somewhat pompous) Baroque affair on the north side of the chancel. There is a fine sequence of Victorian stained glass windows in the nave aisles by Clayton & Bell of London, however the star attraction here is the original medieval glass in the chancel, with an almost complete east window based on the Apostle's creed c1430, with ten Apostle figures holding seperate pieces of the text (two figures are Victorian replacements). There is also a damaged figure of Mary nearby, the oldest piece in the church.
I got to know this church in 2005 through work, when Norgrove Studios was asked to relead the plain clerestorey glazing. Initially I therefore experienced the interior as a building site half full of dust-sheets and scaffolding; only at the very end of the project could I appreciate the full beauty of this church.

A handsome church on the outskirts of Norwich's suburban sprawl, St Mary & St Margaret at Sprowston is a handsome church though has undergone significant post-medieval alteration, including a fine brick tower added in the 18th century.
The whitewashed interior houses some remarkable monuments, the best being the elaborate piece to the right of the altar, whilst other impressive pieces from the latter part of the 16th century onwards can be found in the north aisle.

I took several shots of this cloth, and only this one, for some reason, didn't turn out the right colour - which is purple.

In this picture I leave to your imagination. The purpose you decide. The meaning you create. What matters is the experience you take away.
It was a major life decision, but we decided to go wild and dump our drapes for vertical blinds.
And we are really happy with our choice.

To see how much work I did on this please look at the previous image in my photostream, "Curtain I Orignal".
I think I did a good job but happily accept critiques.
1 duplicated layer. Used Auto Color on that layer. Then adjusted layers opacity to modify the amount of color change.
2. Made modification layer. Adjusted tone curve using 10 point tone curve. Adjusted that layer's opacity.
2.5 combined all 3 layers.
3. Adjusted shadows and highlights. Very subtle and tricky.
4. Slightly increased over all contrast.
5. Resized for upload.
