I know what you mean, where I live we have an inordinate number of old Victorian homes many of them have stained glass incorporated into windows, above doors, so I was hoping to be able to get out and snap some photos.  Or possibly go and bother the nice people at the local stained glass studio/supply store to let me photograph samples in there.

Always wanted to get into making it, but until I can get my workroom in the basement cleaned out that won't happen.  Kids + stained glass supplies = bad.  Since my 'studio' is currently a corner of the living room, I don't think it is wise to work on anything like that there.
