Detail of the new stained glass window then being installed in the south transept facade of Cologne Cathedral.
The main south transept window was destroyed by bombing in 1942 and replaced after the war with plain glass. Only now has colour been restored to these heights, but not without controversy.
The new design by Gerhard Richter is very much contemporary in spirit, being formed of an abstract mosaic of coloured squares, which resemble computer pixels from ground level. Apparently the Archbishop favoured a more representational design showing 20th century martyrs and has been less than chuffed!
The technique too departs from tradition, the coloured glass pieces being resin-bonded to clear backing sheets, eschewing the use of lead altogether. This radical departure is not without some risk, since resin bonded windows from the 1960s and 70s have generally not stood the test of time well, but the technique used here has been meticulously studied first.
The window was installed over the space of a couple of months in summer 2007. At this stage (June) only the lowest section of the window at triforium level had been fitted (the rest was complete by the end of August that year).
Another test shot with my new Leica. Again, a portrait by window light, but with different lighting. I exposed for the skin knowing that the background would be dark.

Thank you for looking.
One of the beautiful and colourful stained glass windows in the Church of St. Mary the Virgin, in the Hertfordshire village of Braughing.
The window consists of three main panels depicting St. Godfrey, St. George, and General Gordon, all of which have the face of Lt. Frederick Longman. Lt. Longman was an officer of the Royal Fusiliers, and was killed in action in October 1914.

Tredington's church of St Gregory is one of the most impressive in south Warwickshire, a beautifully hued 14th century building dominated by a graceful spire (crowning an already tall tower) at the west end.
Within the earlier history of the church is more apparent, with substantial remains of blocked Saxon windows embedded in the masonry immediately above the nave arcades, showing how these were cut through the ancient walling in the late 12th / early 13th century, retaining parts of the previous clerestory in the process (which then would have been hidden plaster and murals throughout the rest of the medieval period).
There is much ancient woodwork, most of the benches are medieval with decorative panelling, as is the former rood screen. The are also some interesting brasses and a fine Jacobean pulpit. The Victorian restoration was fortunately much more restrained here, the only obvious addition of this time being the glass in the chancel.
Tredington church is one of the most rewarding in the area, and happily normally open and welcoming to visitors.

1914-18 War Memorial stained glass window showing Saints Gabriel, Michael & Raphael. - Church of St Swithun, Woodborough Nottinghamshire
These windows were created for Bedenham School, Gosport, Hampshire UK. The sun window and moon window were created to create an atmosphere of calm and serenity to two ‘mood rooms’ designed as a ‘chill out’ space for the children. The cool blues and greens and purples of the moon flood one of the quiet rooms with soothing colour. The warmer sun window lifts moods with bright bold yellows, oranges and reds by Lamberts, Tatra and St Just. Both windows use traditional leading techniques and mouth blown full antique glass with kiln fired painted oxide pigments and sand-blasted decoration. As archetypal symbols of day and night, male, female and activity and wisdom these windows are easily interpreted by the children, identified with and feel welcomed by. The two classroom windows had the theme of a Robin and a Kingfisher.
