Really striking light and colours! Strangely beautiful in a way..... if a 'little' too modern for my taste's! Grief, I am old before my time!! Take care, my friend! Rob.

mmm I do like the colours, very nice... personally not so sure the reflections add to the fairly geometric effect, I might have been tempted to go with a very close crop.. there's something pretty epic about that arrangement of colours, well shot!

Lovely modern stain glass, and great capture and light.. The art of this craft has been lost in the eons of time it seems to me; and thus still a delight to see the magical effect

The outside lighting really helps define and enhance the vivid colors of these brilliant, neolithic, new age, stained glass windows, Bill!

Zoomed, we can really see the textures on the glass, the straitions in the panes, the varying light that passes through them, etc. As we look closely, we see it all. And of course the darkness of the shot allows the light & colors to stand out all the more. I see the book in the center (no doubt scripture, as you say in your title) and i see a halo around it that spreads into the outer 2 panes. And it's nice how it's divided by the mullions/walls between them. Fine direct capture, giving anything else around it only the most minimal say, so that the windows can speak to us directly. it's funny how stained glass, even the most modern styles, still has an ageless look about it; and will always feel rooted in hand-made traditions of the past, because of its imperfections & wonderful variations of light. It's a glorious art, as your photos show in your gallery...
