July Theme Day - Facade


A unique facade where you can look in and up to the sky.

And for balance (below) -
a view from inside looking out. This time showing all 3 windows
of the alter.



Today is City Daily Photo's Theme Day.

Great choice for theme day LOLfromPasa. I have visited this spot and was quite moved. Thank for reminding of a wonderful trip 5 years ago.

England has so many magnificent buildings that it must have been hard to pick one photo for this month's theme day Facade.
Thank you for stopping by at Polonica: Home Again.

I was hoping you would use the cathedral Lauren, it really is quite spectacular and couldn't be more perfect for today..look at all those lovely shadows in the second shot, so good.

I always think such photos of Coventry Cathedral are SO sad with the memories they evoke. What has happened to the peace that was supposed to come after?

VP said...

These beautiful ruins are full of history, recent or past.

Sharon said...

What a beautiful old church. When the ruins of a church are this beautiful, you know the place was quite impressive when it was whole.

Karl said...

Great photos and great choice for this theme!

Love your facade! Both from inside and outside...ah, to think of a time before this building was blitzed...I love the play of light and shadow too. Wonderful for the day!

That second photo just makes my heart sing with the shadows and patterns. The architecture makes this a perfect subject for the theme of façade.

Stefan Jansson said...

Unknown said...

Glad you've chosen this, you know I love the place.

Aren't you all so terrific. Theme day can be a bit of a marathon with so many great photos to look at and comment about. I appreciate the time you took to leave a comment here and enjoyed reading every one. Thank you :).

Gunn said...

I like the second image.
Great details and LIGHT.

Stuart said...

Yeah, I'd say this is the textbook definition of facade. I visited the cathedral several years ago and it is so beautiful. You really captured it.

Buck said...

Oh, now that's just unfair! Who else could match this magnificent facade? Well done!
