Happy Sliders Sunday!
This image was created from two of my previous posts. I was going for an abstract pattern and "cheery" colors.
On a photo tour with VioLum (very busy) and _LABEL_3 we spotted this window and we all took a photo of it. This is my version of this subject. For the other two versions have a look at the first comment!

Detail from the King's house (Kungshuset) close to the cathedral in Lund. This is a 16th century building, once used by the Danish king and his men (back then, Lund was a part of Denmark). It later came to be used by Lund university, and until 1800 ALL of the university, including the library, was housed here. Later the university expanded far beyond just this building but still, back when I was a student, used by the faculty of Philosophy - they have now moved to a more modern location and the place actually stands empty right now which feels like such a pity.
And like other places in central Lund, it was heavily renovated in the 19th century to give it an older and more imposing look.

Stained glass window commemorating Winston Churchill and the 50th anniversary of his death (he died in 1965). In the small church of St Martin in Bladon - the place where he is buried.
The window shows the man himself, but also things that were important to him, including dogs, tanks and polo. If you think the text at the bottom breaks of at a weird place, that's because it is actually a double window and the name continues on the next one.
8. March 2017 this is a sad day for Malta. Malta's famous Azure Window arch has collapsed into the sea after heavy storms.
