stuny Posted June 7, 2007 Share #1 Posted June 7, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) In my thread yesterday, Tales of the Crypt, I showed you some wonderfully carved crypts in the Dreux Chapel. Both Andy & Jerry commented on the stained glass there. Below are some examples of that lovely stained glass. My favorite is the dome, but there is an interesting mix of old and new styles in the windows. You can see more of them on the second Chartres & Area photo gallery page on our site.

Advertisement Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 Hi stuny, Take a look here Glass (3 images). I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
arminw Posted June 7, 2007 Share #2 Posted June 7, 2007 Stuart Very nice pictures indeed ! I particularly love Picture #3, because of its colour contrast and detail . It's a shame to see it only in the small version, the full size must be magic Armin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
biglouis Posted June 7, 2007 Share #3 Posted June 7, 2007 Stuart Excellent pictures. The first one is magnificent, although I also like the 3rd one very much as well. It must be technically difficult to get the exposure right for this type of lighting and you appear to have done a great job. I would be tempted to try the perspective tools in CS2 (if you have them) on picture 2 to try to correct the verticals, but that is purely my taste and it may not be yours.

carlson Posted June 7, 2007 Share #4 Posted June 7, 2007 Very nice pictures, Stuart. I chiefly like the mystic expression of the third one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samwells Posted June 7, 2007 Share #5 Posted June 7, 2007 Lovely shots, Stuart...agree with others about the third one; almost looks like a shot of a theater production. cheers: Sam Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pemayeux Posted June 7, 2007 Share #6 Posted June 7, 2007 Wonderful colors and details Stuart. I agree, the dome is most impressive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The glass is certainly wonderful, and thats a different "take" on the dome to mine. I found the mausoleum a bit depressing when we were there, but the flass is uplifting.

stuny Posted June 8, 2007 Author Share #9 Posted June 8, 2007 Armin, Oliver, Sam, Paul, Ivan & Gerry - Thank you. Big - Thank you. If I had CS2 or C1 Pro I most certainly would adjust the vertical. I was fortunate enough to see my dear friend Gerard do so in C1 Pro. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaipaval Posted June 8, 2007 Share #10 Posted June 8, 2007 Great capture of the dome. Could it be cropped in the round and then printed and framed. Would surely look special H Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkness30 Posted June 10, 2007 Share #12 Posted June 10, 2007 Stuart wonderful images, I always envy this kind of art that flourishes under Christian theology. It is pity that Islam had to ban this kind of art. In the past they had different kind of art in mosques as well but they are being build plain ugly these days. Thanks for sharing Mehmet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted June 10, 2007 Author Share #13 Posted June 10, 2007 Mehmet - Thank you. Some of the best Islamic art and architecuter I've seen on six continents is in Istanbul, and I'm glad it's being well preserved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
