National Cathedral windows

I recently paid a visit to the National Cathedral and was reminded of how beautiful stained glass really can be, particularly in this crisp winter light.

The windows soar towards the ceiling at a staggering 100'. The light still makes it down to the floor however, and to marvelous effect.

I posted some exterior photos a few years ago during a much warmer visit HERE (with a real camera instead of my iphone)

These sacred spaces really are special; thanks to artisans, architects, and perhaps a divine presence.
