A Feast For the Eyes
Here's one of the windows in St. Stephen's Cathedral which adjoins the chapel in yesterday's post. It's a much grander church and the windows are really stunning. It was a job getting a variety of shots as all but one window were open because it was really hot. There are maybe another 9 like this plus 4 much bigger ones higher up towards the roof. I find it unbelievable that all this glass was shipped from Ireland, England, France and Germany in the nineteenth century. Can you imagine being responsible for this lot... months on a boat swaying side to side.... and every time there were storm clouds on the horizon...? It would be enough to give you a heart condition!

This is a beautiful photo! That window is gorgeous!
Hi Cara, this is a beautiful work of art and I think it is very well photographed. It is really worth studying for a while with all its wonderful details and colours. Of course my tips were just very general, but I think you did a very good job here. I wonder, did you use a tripod? Thank you!
