Good Friday

Picture of stained glass window showing a crucifixion scene.

I have visited several churches here in Leeds and further afield over the last few days and large and small there was one thing in common, Easter.

Easter is much more than perhaps a few days off work and possibly an easter egg. Easter is also the most important festival in the Christian calendar, a celebration of the death and coming to life again of Jesus Christ.

My picture today comes from a church not here in Leeds but one not far from Huddersfield, the church at Kirkheaton. I chose a detail showing Christ on the cross from a much larger window.

It was rather a sunny day when I visited the church and you can see the wire behind the window as shadow. It would have been better on a rather dull, cloudy day.
