Jesus in Stained Glass

I’ve been wanting to get a good shot of this amazing stained glass window (at
Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Danville, Virginia
) for a long time now, but usually there’s so much light that the entire image just washes away to white.

This day, though, I must’ve been there at the right time.

Even though the color’s still a little off and some detail is gone, especially at this size and DPI, at least you can see what it’s a picture of: Jesus with his Sacred Heart, surrounded by angels.

When I was about ten, I made a little mushroom sun catcher. It looks like stained glass, but is really plastic chips that melted in the oven. (I still have it in my “specials” box. :P)

Well, since then, I’ve been fascinated by stained glass. I hope one day I’ll get to learn how to do it for real.
