Description
Trinity Episcopal Church, Staunton, Virginia
This historic church boasts seven signed Tiffany windows, and they're happy to have visitors stop by and look, even in the middle of the week. There was a docent outside the front of the church who answered our questions and provided directions.

I picked up my new glasses yesterday. One pair for walking around, with bifocal readers. A second pair for using the computer, also with bifocal readers. I wore trifocals for many years, and have come to believe they are the work of the Devil. (I'm only sort of kidding! LOL!) I have hated wearing trifocals since the minute I got them. So far, having a pair of bifocals for walking around in and a pair to have next to the computer is working out just great! I can see much better with this configuration. The only drawback is when Bill and I are sitting at our computers and he says something and I turn around to look at him! He's at the wrong distance for computer glasses, of course, and his blurriness is disconcerting. I'm sure I'll adjust.
Yesterday when I tried to post this image, Renderosity was experiencing some sort of meltdown. If you notice the image you posted yesterday is black, delete it and repost. It isn't just you ... those images are not accessible to anyone, and according to the Powers That Be, they won't fix themselves no matter how long you wait.

I love the light on that beautiful wood floor.

A clever indirect way to capture the beauty of light passing through stained glass. I tried trifocals a few years ago & they gave me vertigo - after a week of trying to adjust, I gave up. My vision issues aren't as severe as yours. so I get by with using strong magnifiers for reading & computer use & none at all the rest of the time. My eye doctor thinks I'll probably need cataract surgery in two or three years, which I'll just deal with when the time comes...

Outstanding capture! I love the richness of these deep tones.
As for trifocals, i believe they are one step more than our brains can adjust to at one time 😳

Here we go again. Why didn't I think of that? LOL. Dappled stained-glass light on an antique, hardwood pew and floor. Wonderful, artistic vision here, plus fine photographic results.

MAN! This is SO beautiful! Thanks for posting and the info with it. Glad to hear you're getting along well with your new glasses!
As for the Rendo problem - it struck just as I was posting a photo of Swedish coins. I immediately e-mailed admin, who contacted tech support. Rendo was back by this morning. A great thanks to their swift service.

Just look at all those wonderful colors! How lovely - great find and capture, Tara!
I hear ya - I don't even like using bifocals... I always get 2 pairs of glasses - one for normal use, and one for computer / reading. I've got us both appointments with the optometrist (loooong overdue) 2 days after my next surgery. By the time I retire, I'm not gonna want to get within 20 miles of a hospital.....
Glad they got that issue resolved... Apparently it had something to do with an Amazon AWS feature expiring.. Those uploads never made it to the server, I would assume.

I leave the lights to the fake fireplace on at night because it makes a great nightlight.

The interesting light-play gives this image a spiritual and mysterious feel, like I imagine a miracle to be...
I am so happy for you, that there is now and at long last, a resolution for your eyesight, ;)) it can a be a growing problem... as I only know too well from my own past and personal experiences, except yours were in 'triplicates' !!! ;( on the upside, I think I would much rather put with 2 pairs of spectacles as well - and I do wish you well in the future...

A beautiful and very well seen image Tara.

I like your post Tara, but reading about your glasses make me think to what it has come with me. I still read without glasses and most of the time I can see what is in front of me. But sometimes I have to use a magnifying glass, just like my mother used to do.It is difficult for me to read fine print most of the time and I will go back to the Optometrist to see if I need to get my eyes checked again to have cataract surgery (for distance) performed or if last Decembers figures are still good to go. Not being able to see well is a real pain

Such a nice atmosphere and lighting
