OMG! Loved the stained glass, especially the non-traditional, i.e. the doors. Beautiful :) I think the Little Flower church is where I got married? You were there ... was it?

Loved the St. Therese, and the ones made in Toronto. They looked so "old world".... There's a fantastic stained-glass exhibit at the V&A in London...

Gee, Rainy ...
... my hat's off to you! This is a great collection of photos, and it's interesting to see the way you have shown four different approaches to design and content. I'm still a traditionalist myself, so the standard Christian religious windows are my favorites, but the others are all delightfully colorful works of art too. A great journal, as usual.
