Right outside of Bethlehem, on the way to Jerusalem, lie the Shepherds' Fields. This is where I decided to sleep. In the middle of the night, I woke up to see the red sky. In that moment, I heard the hissing sound of a snake and I felt enveloped by an imaginary snake inside my sleeping bag. There was an erotic element to it. I felt as if I was being wrapped by the warm love of a woman, sensually caressing my body, and making me lose myself. As soon as I was being overtaken by the sensations, a pack of dogs came running and started barking endlessly. I jumped out of my sleeping bag and climbed a tree. I stayed there for what seemed like an eternity. The dogs left and I resumed my sleep but I kept hearing them around the field as if they were patrolling the grounds. They seemed to be very well coordinated as I recognized the sound of the barks moving from place to place. As I got close to hitting deep sleep, I was again woken up by the same dog. He was intent on not letting me sleep. Did he know something that I didn't?

On the second day of my recent visit to Herefordshire, I decided to visit three churches all of which are included in Simon Jenkins’ England’s Thousand Best Churches. The three churches were All Saints at Brockhampton-by- Ross, St Catherine at Hoarwithy and St Bartholomew at Much Marcle. The last of these being a re-visit to get some better pictures of the collection of Kempe stained glass in the church.
Having finished my visit to the church of St Catherine at Hoarwithy I made my way to St Bartholomew’s at Much Marcle. When I entered the church I found almost immediately that the church was nearly as alarmed as Brockhampton earlier in the day. At one point I approached a monument in the chancel and suddenly found that I was being told by a disembodied voice to move away as I was getting too close to an alarmed area. As I have said before I understand the need to protect a church against vandalism so that it can be open to the public. However there is a point where it can interfere with the enjoyment of the building and make the church more like a museum than a place of worship.
As a result of the restrictions imposed by the alarms I decided to concentrate solely on photographing the stained glass windows by C E Kempe and C E Kempe and Co Ltd, with which the church is well endowed. The photographs will be posted in a chronological sequence based on the date of manufacture of the windows. This picture shows a detail from the window in the chancel which dates to 1878 and which depicts the Annunciation, see Luke i :26 to 38. It shows a panel representing King David. The words on the scroll read 'Benedixit te Deus in aeternum' and which may be translated as 'God has blessed you for ever'. This is taken from Psalm 44(45) verse 3(2).
Israel's image may be tarnished with religious conflict. But while actually there, you'll see how harmonious the world can be with the world's major religions coexisting in one place. Jerusalem is living history. Tel Aviv - a modern metropolis resembling South Beach. You'll find signs in English, Hebrew and Arabic.

The church of All Saints is the parish church of Culmstock in Devon. The church has had this dedication with certainty since 1375 AD.
The church has a number of stained glass windows ranging in date from 1847 to 1991. This picture shows a detail from the window in the North Aisle which depicts the three women at the Tomb. The window dates to circa 1930. It shows a representation of King David.
