Old Coventry Cathedral Ruins
Stained Glass
Today is City Daily Photo Theme Day and the topic for today is 'Aging'.
I decided to share something that has aged well.
These are pieces of stained glass that date back to
15th Century. Much of Coventry Cathedral was destroyed in
World War II, but these pieces of glass survived and are on
view in the Cathedral ruins.

Hope you had a nice weekend.
See you on Tuesday :).

Something so delicate surviving something so violent. There's a message here.

As an Australian I find old buildings awesome. We have such a young built history in this country.
They are beautiful and it almost seems a miracle that they have survived.
Absolutely gorgeous shot on top!
