four crosses
I’ve been busy lately printing images for a show* and haven’t had time to get out and make new images.
So, here’s one from a few years ago, when I took a little weekend roadtrip and found this church.

*My collaborator VC Torneden and I have a show opening next month in Tulsa. Our original concept was 66 images each, but a few things happened along the way to getting it all printed and now it’s up to 111 images each. So, yeah – that’s what I’ve been doing.
pastor’s parking
The pastor over at Evans Chapel gets to park right there in front of the church, which is probably pretty convenient on a busy Sunday.

the cathedral and the court (and a red car)
This was the view from our window in Edinburgh – it’s St. Giles’ Cathedral, the Scottish supreme court building, a statue*, some people, and a shiny red car.
When I made the photo, I thought it was about the stained glass windows in the cathedral, but now I’ve changed my mind and the red car seems a lot more important than it did initially. (To be honest: initially, I wished it wasn’t even there at all. But now I see that it pulls together all the other red parts of the image in a way I enjoy.)

*The statue is of a gentleman with the succinct name and title of Walter Francis Montagu Douglas Scott, 5th Duke of Buccleuch, 7th Duke of Queensberry, KG, PC, FRS, FRSE, styled Lord Eskdail between 1808 and 1812 and Earl of Dalkeith between 1812 and 1819.

…and here’s a scene from a dramatically-lit chapel inside the cathedral in Siracusa.

those old windows
I’m a sucker for those tiny little diamond-shaped windows.
In case you were wondering, this church dates to the late 13th century and has both a resident organist AND a “band of bell ringers.” And that’s not all! The last village band in Worcestershire, the Bretforton Silver Band, has strong ties to the church and provides music for special services.
