San Francisco Fleet Week 2015: The Saturday Air Show.

This was the airshow that almost wasn't - Karl the Fog owned the day. Yes we got to see a few planes through gaps in the fog, but it was a very subdued event, with over half of the planned performances not happening at all, and with very scaled back displays from those that did.
Whenever we could actually see a plane through the fog I took photographs in the hope of getting something...
On a typical Fleet Week flying day I can easily shoot over 5,000 photos of planes in action. The shots in this album are the "best"(?) of around 400 taken all day.

At Fleet Pond today.
There must have been 20 swans, of a mxture of ages here today. Surprisingly, one dog owner couldn't control her dog, letting it jump in the water harrassing these swans. I was cheering on the swans....lol
Oh for some good light folks!

St Mary Magdalene, Fleet, Lincolnshire, c1180-90 & mid C14.
Restored late C18 & mid C19, also 1860-62 by C Bennett of Kings Lynn.
Grade l listed.
Sedilia & Piscina.
The mid C14 sedilia restored C19 with 3 crocketed and finialled gables. Trefoiled heads beneath and ornate pinnacles. The Piscina to left with ornate crocketed and finialled gable, trefoil head and damaged gables.
A sedilia, from the Latin sedile, or seat, is a canopied seat, or set of multiple seats, set into a recess in the south wall of the chancel, near the altar. The sedilia were used by clergy as seating during services. Usually there are three seats, one each for the priest, deacon and sub-deacon, under the same extended canopy. The canopies in particular can be highly decorated, with elaborate carving, often of foliage.
The Piscina (Latin “pond”) has come down to us as a decorated basin with a hole in the middle to the right of where the altar stood in medieval times in the wall beneath the canopy supported by a stone pillar. The piscina had a central drain used to dispose of surplus liquids from the communion service, reverently and securely. Great importance was attached to these drains, as is shown by the fact that a piscina was the only liturgical fitting other than the altar which was required by diocesan regulations from the thirteenth century. In some churches the piscina is accompanied by a credence shelf, where the bread and wine and water were placed in preparation for the service.
