  9. I love stained glass reflections. In this case, I thought it was a reflection in water! Great!

  10. What a unique reflection! I too thought it was reflected in water, but now I see it is a highly polished floor!

  20. I absolutely love stained glass in churches and we don't see much of it here. This shot is unique because it really is a reflection of a reflection! Great idea indeed and beautifully presented.

  21. I never went inside that cathedral when I visited NYC, just saw it from the outside, and it was beautiful.

    The reflection is gorgeous. Makes me wish I had gone inside!

  22. A stunning, unusual setting for a reflection! Really lovely colourings of the elegant windows on the floor!

  23. Almost a puzzle picture. Once I got the paving stones in my mind I was able to truly enjoy the magnificent reflection.

  24. It is a wonderful reflection, such a plus for the
    church, too. I have noticed in NYC these days that
    floors are becoming highly polished once more, thus
    providing yet another interesting photo opportunity for those of us starved of reflective pools and rivers in
    the countryside!

  35. Good heavens -- my floors don't shine like that!

  36. Beautifully done James! The top of each of the three columns of glass remind me of crowns which makes me think of the three kings.
    I love the soft golden background color in this too.
