These angels preside at St. John's on the Green in Waterbury, Connecticut. They caught my eye while I was waiting for my daughter's choir to sing so I could make a video for its blog. They are very strong yet graceful. I want them on my team.

can you imagine how difficult it is to get dressed with those wings. LOL! We believe angels don't have wings but it's only symbolic of how they get around so easily. Fun photos. I love stained glass windows and the thoughts of angels helping us that we can't see.

Carver said...

They are indeed strong yet graceful which is such a great combination. Beautiful shots.

PERBS said...

I never heard of that remark soemone made about angels not having wings. . . everything I have ever read or heard says they do. Hmmmmmm, now I shall have to go search my Bible.

OK back to your photos of these beautiful creatures. . . no wonder your eye caught them to share with us -- simply divine!

Are these windows or painting? I almost can't tell.

Yogi♪♪♪ said...

Great pictures and perfect description, graceful and strong. I'd have never got the strong part myself.

Very nice set of photos. I've always been a fan of stained glass.

Lovely angels. Very nice modern look.

They'd make really pretty Christmas cards, wouldn't they?

Pietro said...

Pretty angels, fine compositions. I don't know if they are paintings or windows.

LadyFi said...

Stunning photos! And such graceful angels...

Maggie May said...

Beautiful colours that you caught in those photos.
I think your guardian was looking after you when you took those magnificent photos.
You knew exactly how to frame them in those windows!
Really appealing shots.

Tranquility said...

Those are gorgeous! Are they painted onto the windows?

Rajesh said...

Beautiful work of art on the glass. Lovely.

Mojo said...

Amazing glass work. Not the usual Tiffany style, but I think I actually like these better.

And Sandy, there's no way they could ever refuse you. The angels always look out for the good ones. They got your back I'm positive.

the donG said...

the first glass picture portrays a very encouraging setting. it shows that we all have angels to hang on to.

barb said...

Wow. They look like paintings rather than stained glass. Perhaps a combination of each?

Independent Chick said...

Oh, I love these photos. Angels certainly are everywhere. : )

lisaschaos said...

I love them! I can decided which one more - I think the night angel, love the stars - although her eyes are a little droopy. :) lol

Debbie said...

Oh I agree! And the photos are beautiful.

Nessa said...

You captured them so beautifully. stained glass windows are wonderful.

Vixen said...

That is spectacular stained glass work. If I could, I would love to learn that art. Creating angels in glass, reflecting light.

Thumbelina said...

The colours are just beautiful too.

Reader Wil said...

I want them in my team too! The clours are very beautiful.
