I am a BIG fan of window lighting. It softens everything, and adds a warm glow. Here, there are 3 different windows one looks through.
St Peter, Blaxhall, Suffolk
A remote church in a large, sparsely populated rural parish.
Blaxhall is famous for two reasons. It is the setting for George Ewart Evans' books, including The Pattern under the Plough and Ask the Fellows who Cut the Hay.
It is also the home parish of the Rope family. The stained glass work of the cousins Margaret Edith Aldrich Rope and Margaret Rope is now considered to be among the finest of the 20th century, and some of it can be found here, as well as more glass and bas-relief work by Dorothy Rope and Ellen Rope.
I'm not sure how I feel about this. It's definitely different than what I usually take pictures of it, but I love old looking windows which is exactly what this window is.
HONEST COMMENTS PLEASE.
This window, showing scenes from Christ walking on water, was designed by Henry Holiday and produced by Powell & Sons in the Whitefriars Glassworks, London. It is in memory of John Gurney Hoare ( died 1875) and his wife, Caroline ( died 1878).
East window of the north aisle at Alrewas church, the work of C.E.Kempe and depicting the Annunciation at it's centre.
Poor Kim had to clean the windows of my ' Dancing Lily " studio since alittle birdie told him they were dirty...That's what happens when your creations nest on the window sills.
Wandering around the old city in Lucca, Italy I came across these figures in the arched windows. They seemed just a bit incongruous, just like some aspects of Windows versions.
This window display allowed people to walk up, write their secret, and post it anonymously. Sort of like a Grouphug.us IRL.

U2 - No Line On The Horizon Live in Dublin
www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oKwnkYFsiE&feature=related
There are two reasons why a person faces the sea.
One, to enjoy a slice of shine in the sea like children bubbling over in the beach.
The other, to brush the dust of memory like an old man who misses old days, staring at the shine
quietly.
Those lead to only one meaning though they do not seem to overlap. It’s a rebirth.
I face myself to change tomorrow, a vague day into something certain.
That is the meaning of a rebirth.
I had a very sweet girlfriend when I was 18.
After she left, I knew the meaning of gentleness for the first time and also a true pain of loss. After
she left, how many times did I depend too much on her, doubt her, envy her and keep on telling lies
until I realized it is love?
I wonder whether a nobody like me could have given something to her who was struggling in the
daily life in those days. Giving something is arrogant conceit. It is nothing but self-satisfaction.
I had been thinking about such a thing.
However, I guess what she saw in me was because I had nothing. That‘s why she tried to see
something in me. Perhaps she found a slight possibility in me, a guy filled with ambiguous, unstable
tomorrow. But I wasted days depending too much on her gentleness.
Now I finally can convey how I felt in those days when we met.

Christ calling Peter and Andrew as they are fishing in Lake Gallilee, a window at Fishbourne church, West Sussex.
North nave window at Burton Hastings, installed in 2001 and designed by local artist Roger Fifield.
Fifiled's work makes a very attractive contemporary adition to this ancient building, and is beautifully painted and stylised, echoing his earliest work from the 1960s, without looking backwards.
The subject appears to be a celebration of village life, with various landmark buildings and elements of the village featured without any obvious religious theme (beyond the small dove in the tracery light above).
This formula for stained glass seems to be popular with certain congregations, who prefer to commemorate 'down-to-earth' subjects of mainly local, secular relevance, than convey a spiritual message. The artist is then given a 'shopping list' of relevant features to include in the design at all cost!
Window frost at twilight this morning. Shot with my old, manual focus Micro-Nikkor 55/2.8 @ f/2.8 or f/4. The nearby blue photo is a close-up from the center of this scene.
East window of St Mary's, Bloxham.
An early work dating from 1869 by Morris, Marshall & Faulkner (founded 1861, later to become Morris & Co in 1875) and one of the best examples of the early stained glass.
This design was a collaboration of Philip webb, Edward Burne Jones, and William Moris himself, each responsible for specific elements or figures within the window.
Peterborough Cathedral, Peterborough, Cambridgeshire
Cambridgeshire is unusual as an English county in having not one but two major medieval cathedrals, and unique in that neither is in the county town. Peterborough Cathedral's setting in the heart of the busy city is quite different to that of its neighbour Ely Cathedral, which dominates a small, beautiful market town. There is something special about stepping out of Peterborough's Bridge Street, with its department stores, and Cathedral Square, with its chain restaurants, into the peaceful precinct below the superb Early English west front, a match for the spectacular frontages of both Wells and Lincoln.
Peterborough cathedral is dedicated as the Cathedral Church of St Peter, St Paul and St Andrew, and these Saints images appear in statue and stained glass form several times. Originally the church of a Benedictine Abbey, the current structure was begun in the spring of 1118, and was largely complete by about 1250. The vast wooden roof of the nave is, amazingly, the original, one of only four such roofs in Europe. The fire of 22nd November 2001 came within minutes of destroying it. As it was, the painstaking and expensive process of cleaning the roof, which had just been completed, had to be immediately repeated. The most spectacular part of the cathedral is not Early English at all, but the late medieval retrochoir with its fan-vaulting of 1496-1508, by John Wastell who used the same trick at Kings College Chapel across the Fen in Cambridge.
That Cambridgeshire can claim Peterborough Cathedral is an accident of history, of course, because Peterborough only became a part of the much enlarged county of Cambridgeshire in 1974. In fact, almost all of the county of Cambridgeshire is in the Diocese of Ely, including much of the city of Peterborough. All of the city south and east of the River Nene is in the Diocese of Ely, not Peterborough. And yet, the Cathedral close has a frontage that is almost on the Nene. Because of this, Peterborough Cathedral is closer to the edge of its Diocese than any other English cathedral, including both St Paul's Cathedral and Southwark Cathedral, separated as they are by just a few hundred yards and the River Thames.
Schloss Vollrads is a wine estate in the Rheingau wine-growing region in Germany, that has been making wine for over 800 years.
After the donation of Verona in 983 the archbishopric of Mainz, the new owner, invested in vine growing, although vines had been cultivated there since Roman times. The manor house was named after the Lords of Winkel; Vollradus is a given name. In 1218 a "Vollradus in Winkela" (so-called knight Vollradus), in 1268 a "Conradus dictus Vollradus armiger" is documented. No building originating from this time is traceable.
Today the core building of the estate is a substantial tower house, surrounded by a square moat. Therefore the house is only reachable by bridge. This keep can be traced to the first third of the 14th century and the family of Greiffenclau, the heirs of the Lords of Winkel. The octagon stage tower, flanking the donjon, was erected in 1471; the bay window was added in 1620. Above the doorway the coat of arms of the Greiffenclau family is to be seen.
In 1684 the present two-winged manor house was built by Georg Phillip Greiffenclau von Vollrads near the tower. His son Johann Erwein erected the estate buildings around 1700, as well as boundary walls around the manor garden, and finally equipped the tower with a typical baroque roof.
In 1907/1908 Countess Clara Matuschka-Greiffenclau had the buildings remodelled. She increased the height of the southern wing of the mansion by a third floor, added two towers with an onion dome, and enlarged the terraces and the bay windows at the Donjon.
In 1975 Erwein Matuschka Greiffenclau took charge of the property, which was heavily in debt. Although an important figure in the emergence of a new or rediscovered style of high quality dry Rheingau wine in the 1980s and 1990s, he was not successful in reorganising his estate. When in 1997 the principal bank decided on the declaration of bankruptcy, Erwein, who was then also the chairman of the VDP-Rheingau, took his gun, went to his beloved vineyards, and committed suicide. Since then, the estate has belonged to the Nassauische Sparkasse bank, which runs the manor house as well as the vineyards and a restaurant.

One of a pair of small two-light windows lighting the Merton monument in the north east transept at Rochester Cathedral. The glass appears to be either the work of Sir Niniah Comper or perhaps his pupil Geoffrey Webb.
Rochester Cathedral is not one of England's best known (being somewhat overshadowed by it's nearest diocesian neighbour Canterbury) but is nonetheless one of the most interesting and rewarding of our medieval churches.
The present building was begun by Bishop Gundulf in the late 11th century though most of what we see today is 12th century Norman work in the nave and main facade combined with the 13th century Early English style eastern arm and transepts. The central tower and spire date only from 1904 but are based on the medieval original (having become ruined in the 18th century and unsuitably rebuilt in the 19th)
The most significant feature is the elaborate 12th century west facade (altered by the large 15th century window and much restored by the Victorians) which retains it's fine sculpted central doorway, complete with damaged tympanum of Christ in majesty with rare but battered column figures (once like those at Chartres) below.
Other treasures within includes a fine 13th century crypt, a wall painting of the Wheel of Fortune, several fine bishop's tombs and the exquisite late 14th century chapter-room doorway.
