It's my turn this week to open and close Paimpont's Abbey. At 6pm the late afternoon sun was streaming through the west stain glass windows, casting the reflection on to the left transept's side altar of St John the Baptist.
This cherub looked as if he'd had a hard day playing his trumpet. It seemed appropriate to take a sympathetic shot.
Nicely observed and captured Mrs S... but for the record, the 'cherub' is known as a putto (plural putti), a (usually) winged small boy but if featured naked will be depicted as asexual. This one looks as though he has been on the sherbets!
RIchard has posted many times when it is his turn to close and I enjoy the private tour we get. This light reflected through the stain glass is lovely. The cherub seems to be enjoying it.
Thank you for reminding me to try my shots on black. I'm so relieved to get it posted that I forget to think about the viewing options.
