No wonder people from middle-age believed in miracles! Imagine them seeing that!
A beautiful capture of the kaleidoscope of colors and shapes in your windows, V de B! Bravo!
What a difference between these spaces of the spirit and today's more corporate ecclesiastical structures. Amazingly wonderful!!!!
Thanks.
What an appropriate image for a Sunday morning. I can imagine the mass sung in latin.
Your commenter Cheryl sums up the new fad of church building in America, which sadly is as she so succinctly says "corporate ecclesiastical structures"

helen and Cheryl,
I have to agree but I'm fortunate that my church here in B'ham is a beautiful structure with glorious windows as well. Saint Denis, however is in a class all its own as you can see.
That scene would stop me in my tracks too!
Virginia, These masterpieces of art and design always take my breath away. One of my favorite books is still "The Pillars of the Earth"

Beautiful! A rainbow inside the church....amazing. I think I'm going to love this series since I am totally in love with old churches.
You and Genie were as one today Virginia, very beautiful stained glass window reflections, kaleidoscope image.
It was a truly beautiful day, with the sun streaming in at such a low angle... fortunately it was warmer that day than it has been here for the past couple of weeks... minus 10°C has been frequent in the mornings...
I just put up some more photos from our afternoon there; for your pleasure...
Owen, I just added a link to your wonderful blog post today. It was fun hanging over your shoulder and watching you shoot St. Denis. Merci mon ami.

Absolutely lovely Virginia!!!
Mille fois merci... :-)
I have a great love of medieval churches and am always in total awe of the structures from hundreds of years ago, and the fact that they still stand as a true testament to their skills. These windows are stunning and you were in the right place at the right time V. Beautiful.
This photo is a real show stopper. I can only imagine the glorious feeling of being there and experiencing this - lucky you! And lucky us that you are such a great photographer.
Loved this light and all of St Denis... Among the 4 serious shooters, there were several thousand "clicks"
This shot is gorgeous, V!
awesome resul in light, in not easy condition, wonderful vertical depth
Breathtaking! So much beauty and history there! Must see it someday. Grand, gorgeous. Difficult to find enough words to describe such amazing beauty.. :)
Bravo Virginia. Remarkable photography.
Stunningly perfect, Virginia. A new favorite. I love the colors reflected on the stone!
Amazing reflections in the stone. Gorgeous, V.
