Fannish Fifty: Stained Glass

[smallhobbit]

If I go anywhere with stained glass I can be guaranteed to take several photos.  For obvious reasons there can be problems with the light, but nonetheless I like to capture something of their beauty.

While we were away we visited the Cathedral Notre-Dame at St Omer.  This was built between the thirteenth and sixteenth century and apparently is the final great example of Gothic architecture in the northern provinces of France.










And with bonus wood carving

I absolutely love stained glass windows, so I very much appreciate your post! You took some great photos! You were really able to capture the colours and the light!

From what I can see by your pictures, the Cathedral Notre-Dame at St Omer is a really beautiful place. I'm sure that it's an excellent example of Gothic architecture.
