Prophet in early sixteenth century Renaissance glass now located in the west window at Hatton, but presumably originating from a tracery light of an unidentified German church.
The church of the Holy Trinity at Hatton was almost entirely rebuilt in the Victorian period (1878-80 by William Young) retaining only the fifteenth century tower from the medieval building. The old tower itself has a fine west window which contains some pieces of 16th century German glass.
This church is normally locked outside of services and has no keyholder listed, so prior arrangement or a special event may be necessary to see inside.
"Thus says the Lord GOD:
If the wicked man turns away from all the sins he committed,
if he keeps all my statutes and does what is right and just,
he shall surely live, he shall not die."
- Ezekiel 18:21, which is part of today's 1st reading.

Explain the day: so today i did two shoots, i was scheduled for 4 total with We Are Defiance, Dr. Acula, Legend, and Monsters. i ended up only shooting Monsters and Dr Acula due to the We Are Defiance van flipping a few days ago and brian still being pretty beaten up we had to post pone that shoot til he recovered all the way. and Legend still is finding their final member so we are post poning that shoot til they get that situated. all the shoots are re-accuring clients except WAD so def was a way to show how much ive progressed over the past year and a half. needless to say all the bands were pretty impressed an excited at the out comes. and i had a blast seeing every one again over great night.
Editing/Deadline:this shot is one of two Monsters needed for the cd release. well actually needed it by the end of today so less then a 24 hr dead line from the actual shoot to editing, and then to send off for them to post along with the new album.so having said that, not to much editing on this shot just cloning trash off the ground and a sign out of the back ground. did skin treatment and vola` done.

Also in Room I is this is fresco fragment of the Prophet Amos.
It is one of several circular fresco fragments (tondos) that were saved from the ceiling of the confessional at San Nicola (Rome). They are dated to 1120-1130 AD and are relatively small, about 2 feet (60 cm) in diameter. Two are displayed here in Room I.

Came to the mosque for the morning prayers. And observerd that the colours in the morning light were changing so beautifully. I stayed out til noon, just to see all the changes in the sky above Madinah.
almost any homemade prophet can predict the future for Australia as bright without a crystal ball.
in particular the future for Fortitude Valley (Queensland) - where this street art is located - is obviously very bright as the inner city suburb has been neglected by developers for decades.
This icon of the Holy Prophet Elijah is part of my private collection. It was painted (written) for our Slava. It depicts the Prophet Elijah in a cave with a raven bringing him food, as well as the angel waking him from sleep with the words "arise and eat" and the Prophet ascending into heaven in a fiery chariot handing his mantle to the Prophet Elisha.
قبرستان خالد نبی (دشت آلت ها) م
PROPHET KHALED (KHALED -e- NABI) CEMETERY
On the top of mount Gogjeh Dagh in Torkman Sahra, Golestan Province, Iran, there are three tombs which is believed to belong to prophet Khaled (Khaled Nabi) on the highest mount in the region, 700m above sea level, along with his father in law (Aalam Baba) and his shepherd (Choopan Baba) on lower adjacent hills.
Close to the tombs, there is an ancient Mysterious Cemetery with about 500 strange and unusual gravestones, with shapes of human genital organs, representing buried person's gender. There is no comprehensive study about the origin, date or religion of the people buried there; some believe they belong to people with phallicism ideas, migrated from India or central Asia, as there is no evidence for such believes among local people through history.
There are three main shapes for the gravestones:
- Male genital organ shapes, some with height up to 5m, resembling buried males
- Female breast shape or genital organ shape with height up to 2m, resembling buried females
- Cylinders with Ram head, as sign of fertility, power, sovereignty and respect.
Whatever these stones are and resemble, they are mystic, beautiful and part of human heritage.

Event - Africa Oyé Festival 2017, Liverpool
Photographer - Ibrahim D Photography
Africa Oyé is the UK's largest free celebration of African music and culture and takes place annually in Liverpool. Beginning in 1992 as a series of small gigs in the city centre, the event has gone from strength to strength, moving to its present Sefton Park home in 2002 to cope with demand.
Here are some videos I took of his performance at the Festival
My wall at Sand, Sea and Spray. I reworked a piece from my last exhibit, EVERYTHING MUST GO at /A WORD OF ART in Cape Town. Latex and acrylic on beautiful rough brick. Could have used more time but the rain was having none of that. Still, quite happy with how it turned out.
ZIYARAT OF MESJID AL-NABI
Idhun al-Dukhul means permission to enter the Prophet?s mosque for the Ziyarat (paying homage) of the Pr ophet:
O Allah, I am standing at the door of one of the houses of Your Prophet and the family. You have prohibited the people from entering his house except by the permission of Your Prophet and You said: ?O You who believe do not enter the house of the Prophet unless permitted to do so?. O Allah, I believe in this in his absence just as I believe it in his presence and I know that Your Prophet and Your vicegerents upon whom be peace, are alive in your presence, they are being nourished, they see my position and hear my speech and they return my greetings and (I believe) that You have covered my ears from hearing their speech and have opened the door of perception of their secret conversations (with You); I seek Your permission, O my Lord firstly; then I seek the permission of Your Prophet, peace be upon him and his family secondly and I seek the permission of Your vicegerent, the Imam whose obedience is incumbent upon me and (the permission of) Your angels entrusted over this blessed site thirdly. May I enter, O Prophet of Allah, may I enter O the proof of Allah, may I enter, O angels of Allah who are stationed close to this shrine, so pe rmit me O my master to enter the best of way that You have permitted any of Your friends, if I am not deserving of that then You surely are deserving of that.
Loads of messages and people showing support to Charlie Hebdo after the terrorist attacks on January 7, 2015. One week after, people are still mourning.

Figure of a turbaned man, previously used to fill one of the traceries of the west window but repositioned to a more likely setting in the south aisle west window in the recent restoration.
The lower register of the south aisle west window depicts the Judgement of King David against the Amalekite. The upper half is largely composed of reconstructed elements and reset fragments.
The west windows of the aisles were heavily damaged by the great storm of 1797 and until the recent restoration had many missing sections and areas composed of patched fragments. The restorers of the Barley Studios bravely reinstated the missing sections using as much original material and evidence as possible (a thorough examination of the fragments when disassembled yielded much information). The result has transformed the effect of these windows, visually completing the cycle of windows again for the first time since the storm damage of 1797.
St Mary's at Fairford is justly famous, not only as a most beautiful building architecturally but for the survival of its complete set of late medieval stained glass, a unique survival in an English parish church. No other church has resisted the waves of iconoclasm unleashed by the Reformation and the English Civil War like Fairford has, and as a result we can experience a pre-Reformation iconographic scheme in glass in its entirety. At most churches one is lucky to find mere fragments of the original glazing and even one complete window is an exceptional survival, thus a full set of 28 of them here in a more or less intact state makes Fairford church uniquely precious.
The exterior already promises great things, this is a handsome late 15th century building entirely rebuilt in Perpendicular style and dedicated in 1497. The benefactor was lord of the manor John Tame, a wealthy wool merchant whose son Edmund later continued the family's legacy in donating the glass. The central tower is adorned with much carving including strange figures guarding the corners and a rather archaic looking relief of Christ on the western side. The nave is crowned by a fine clerestorey whilst the aisles below form a gallery of large windows that seem to embrace the entire building without structural interruption aside from the south porch and the chancel projecting at the east end. All around are pinnacles, battlements and gargoyles, the effect is very rich and imposing for a village church.
One enters through the fan-vaulted porch and is initially met by subdued lighting within that takes a moment to adjust to but can immediately appreciate the elegant arcades and the rich glowing colours of the windows. The interior is spacious but the view east is interrupted by the tower whose panelled walls and arches frame only a glimpse of the chancel beyond. The glass was inserted between 1500-1517 and shows marked Renaissance influence, being the work of Flemish glaziers (based in Southwark) under the direction of the King's glazier Barnard Flower. The quality is thus of the highest available and suggests the Tame family had connections at court to secure such glaziers.
Entering the nave one is immediately confronted with the largest and most famous window in the church, the west window with its glorious Last Judgement, best known for its lurid depiction of the horrors of Hell with exotic demons dragging the damned to their doom. Sadly the three windows in the west wall suffered serious storm damage in 1703 and the Last Judgement suffered further during an 1860 restoration that copied rather than restored the glass in its upper half. The nave clerestories contain an intriguing scheme further emphasising the battle of Good versus Evil with a gallery of saintly figures on the south side balanced by a 'rogue's gallery' of persecutors of the faith on the darker north side, above which are fabulous demonic figures leering from the traceries.
The aisle windows form further arrays of figures in canopies with the Evangelists and prophets on the north side and the Apostles and Doctors of the Church on the south. The more narrative windows are mainly located in the eastern half of the church, starting in the north chapel with an Old Testament themed window followed by more on the life of Mary and infancy of Christ. The subject matter is usually confined to one light or a pair of them, so multiple scenes can be portrayed within a single window. The scheme continues in the east window of the chancel with its scenes of the Passion of Christ in the lower register culminating in his crucifixion above, while a smaller window to the south shows his entombment and the harrowing of Hell. The cycle continues in the south chapel where the east window shows scenes of Christ's resurrection and transfiguration whilst two further windows relate further incidents culminating in Pentecost. The final window in the sequence however is of course the Last Judgement at the west end.
The glass has been greatly valued and protected over the centuries from the ravages of history, being removed for protection during the Civil War and World War II. The windows underwent a complete conservation between 1988-2010 by the Barley Studio of York which bravely restored legibility to the windows by sensitive releading and recreating missing pieces with new work (previously these had been filled with plain glass which drew the eye and disturbed the balance of light). The most dramatic intervention was the re-ordering of the westernmost windows of the nave aisles which had been partially filled with jumbled fragments following the storm damage of 1703 but have now been returned to something closer to their original state.
It is important here not to neglect the church's other features since the glass dominates its reputation so much. The chancel also retains its original late medieval woodwork with a fine set of delicate screens dividing it from the chapels either side along with a lovely set of stalls with carved misericords. The tomb of the founder John Tame and his wife can be seen on the north side of the sanctuary with their brasses atop a tomb chest. Throughout the church a fine series of carved angel corbels supports the old oak roofs.
Fairford church is a national treasure and shouldn't be missed by anyone with a love of stained glass and medieval art. It is normally kept open for visitors and deserves more of them.
