The beauty of glass

by Yen posted April 25, 2009 category Going places

One of the many reasons I love those Gothic-style ancient cathedrals is I always admire those huge, colourful stained glass windows. Most of them incorporate narratives drawn from the bible while some simply use geometrical motifs.

I’ve uploaded some more picture of stained glass windows and some sightseeing views taken in Cologne.

  1. KY, this is one awesome picture! Very beautiful. What’s your trick to take such pretty pictures?

  2. Awesome picture! It’s a plus point that you can display your picture big and long, how did you do that? mine seems to restrict itself to certain size :P

  3. Dawn, thank you! Hmm..there are no tricks actually. Hold your camera as still as possible, point and shoot ;) . Oh, and don’t use flash :) .

    Jessica, thank you! I didn’t restrict the size of the picture to be displayed. Maybe your problem is due to some settings in Blogger/Flickr?

  4. Hi KY,
    Yeah, I think you are right. But… I think I just leave it as is for now :-)
