Lit Window

Walking away from the church, I turned to see the colourful stained glass window shining through the plain glass. Such beauty.

so effective, I thought this was a selective coloured pic at first. lovely spot and capture

[Anne]

Beautiful and so effective in this shot Catherine, I dont think it is easy to get a good stained glass window shot

[Sue]

That is such a perfectly balanced shot with the 2 windows. The moss covered old gravestone in front just sets it off as well

[Chillen]

I really like the texture you've given the stone of the church Catherine. It contrasts well with the streaks of colour from the stained glass.

[Catherine P]

Beautiful composition, so many points of interest, and love how you can look through one window to see the stained glass of another.

[Catherine Otley]

The colour coming from within contrasts wonderfully with the near greyscale of the exterior.

[Debby Davies]

Just love the stained glass

[Terri]

What a beautiful shot!

[Babs]

Beautiful, I wonder what it looks like from the inside too.

[Milanie]

Lovely against that rockwork - beautiful church

[Walks @ 7]

What a magical ancient place.

[Dawn]

A beautiful stained glass window

[Valerie Chesney]

How very lovely, gorgeous architecture & capture of the stained glass window . Fav

[leggzy]

Lovely colours in the window & textures in the beautiful stonework

[Margo Sayer]

Whilst I like this, I would have persuaded myself to crop out the forefront gravestones. IMHO, More drama, less distraction.

@jesperani Thank you Jennifer. It was an unusual angle.

[Catherine]

@365anne You are right, it isn't. Thank you.

[Catherine]

@suesouthwood Thank you. The gravestones do add a bit!

[Catherine]

@chillen Thank you. I think it is sandstone.

[Catherine]

@cmp Thank you Catherine. I don't think I have found a church where you can do this.

[Catherine]

@redandwhite Thank you Catherine. I nearly made the outside mono, but wanted to portray the cold frost.

[Catherine]

@365projectorgdebbydavies Thank you Debby. Stained glass is just beautiful!

[Catherine]

@terrinorthwind Thank you Terri and for the fav.

[Catherine]

@onewing I did go inside and the window was just stunning!

[Catherine]

@milaniet Thank you. I think it is sandstone. A warm stone.

[Catherine]

@joysabin It is - and I had it all to myself which is even better!

[Catherine]

@dawnee Thank you Dawnee and for the fav

[Catherine]

@happysnaps Thank you Valerie. It is a beautiful church with wonderful, colourful windows! Thank you for the fav too.

[Catherine]

@leggzy Thank you. It was a cold day and I think everything looks sharper in the cold!

[Catherine]

@s4sayer I have just put my hand over those gravestones to cover them, and you are right! It would take a bit of cloning, but will give it a go. Thank you for your very useful comment.
