a bit of an explaination needed for this series, really.
September is always a busy month, what with the heritage open weekend, and open house in London, so, somehow, these shots of the inside of St Clements got forgotten.
Every time I go to Sandwich, I moan about not being able to gain entry. And then yesterday reading an old blog entry of mine, there was my description of inside the church.
I looked on my external hard drive, and there were the shots. So, a quick bit of editing, and now, St Clement's, Sandwich.
The Parish Church, as it has become since the union of the three original Sandwich parishes (St Clement's, St Peter's and St Mary's) in 1948, stands in the south-east sector of town, adjoining the ramparts. It was formerly the election place of the Mayors of Sandwich and there are many carved headstones in its ancient and extensive churchyard.
The central tower and east and west part of the nave belong to a 12th century aisle-less church; in the 13th century, the chancel was rebuilt with a north chapel and, in the 14th century, a south chapel was added.
Originally, the church was cruciform in plan, as was characteristic of Norman buildings, but the addition of chantries and chapels produced the present shape and dimensions.
The Norman tower is one of the finest in England and the pillars that support it have rounded arches and curiously carved capitals with various ornaments of scrolls, frets, foliage and grotesque figures.
In the north-west angle of these columns is the doorway to the spiral staircase over which is an interesting tympanium with late Saxon or early Norman carvings.
The octagonal heraldic font has on one of its faces the arms of ancient Sandwich, and on the south face, the arms of Archdeacon Robert Hallum, by whom it is believed the font was given in about 1406.
Over the north door is the "Priest's Room", and other interesting features are the oak stalls of the members of the Confraternity of St Clement, one of which is a miserere seat; and many indents of brasses, one of which was the Bishop of Ross, Vicar of the parish in 1444.
St Margaret's Chapel has a complete medieval tiled floor; also a Gradas (gospel-step) built into the altar dais; two altar stones are now restored to their proper use after having been used as tombstones.
The Chapel of St George contains a statue of St John that was taken from Lincoln Cathedral by the Puritans. The Mayor's seat, which faces this Chapel, bears the date 1869.

Randy Hutson, CEO for the American Red Cross Serving King & Kitsap Counties, talks to a "media" volunteer in Renton during the Sound Shake exercise.
On Saturday, July 10, the Red Cross tested our ability to respond to a large-scale earthquake in the Seattle area. As part of the state-wide Sound Shake 2010 drill (www.soundshake2010.org), more than 200 people came from across King and Kitsap Counties to set up and staff two Red Cross shelters, one in Renton and one in Federal Way.

I got into town just as the St. Patrick's Day parade wound up.
I went out to look for place to get lunch and ended up in what turned out to be a near-riot

Taken with the 35mm f/1.8G DX lens, though interestingly, it doesn't have a hard cutoff from the image circle, which appears to be plenty large for an FX-sized sensor at f/1.8.
My Aunt Ethel once explained to me that she called this her "revenge" photo. She explained that she had a very difficult delivery with her daughter, Georgia. She was so angry when she became pregnant again that she said she took Georgia and went to have her photograph taken so her husband could always see how beatiful she was and how guilty he should be when she died giving birth.
