Photograph taken looking along the deep oak windowsill of a long row of leaded glass windows at Little Moreton Hall in Cheshire. The Tudor hall was built in stages between 1504 - 1610. Image was taken in a room off the Long Gallery on the top most layer of the property. Monochrome filter used to focus on the shadows and pattern. Thick wood-framed windows, all tall rectangles, filled with clear leaded glass in a repeating pattern of diamond, lozenge and rectangle shapes. The windows are three layers tall and many more wide (only some caught in the image). Sunlight has created amazing shadow patterns on the wide windowsill from the leaded glass. The windowsill has been made with two oak boards for depth. Wonderful property to visit and run very well by the National Trust.

Photograph taken at the Tudor beauty, Little Moreton Hall in Cheshire. Used a black and white filter for drama, though most of the image is monochrome anyway. Apart from the apotropaic marks and the long gallery, this window is in my top three favourite bits of the house. Without the filter, the rectangles of glass in the bottom two panes are a beautiful chartreuse colour. Image shows a large bay window of Tudor design. Above the window, added to the dark wood in white are the words; 'Rycharde Dale Carpeder, Made Thies Windovs by the Grace of God'. Richard was a master craftsman and I'm rather pleased he got to celebrate his name so proudly. Each face of the bay, has 3 x 3 panes of leaded glass in an intricate repeating pattern of diamonds, rectangles and lozenges. The window is set within an external wall of a dark wood vertical wooden frame, with distinctive white infill, typical of Tudor design. Little Moreton Hall was built in stages between 1504 - 1610 and is run by The National Trust.

I've always liked this character... and I'm really inspired by how mischievous he can be.

What do you think of this redesign?

I've been holding this relay baton for hours! Hours I tell you! So flipping long my hand has turned black and nobody gives a hoot! Look at it, it's withering before my eyes, or it would be if I was allowed to turn my head without getting shouted at by the stroppy little man wielding paintbrushes with a flourish like he's painting Jesus himself. I'm just a bloke that wants a pint but nope, the missus has commissioned this 'effort' to hang in the entranceway. Every time I walk through the door I'll be met with how ridiculous I look. This is payback for forgetting her birthday. Never going to forget again, am I? She chose the outfit too. Goodness only knows where she found it all but I can hazard a guess! I'm in my fancy dressing gown that I save for that one night a year when she lets me near her, a bed throw from the guest room turbaned round my waist and cuffs that look like the old neck ruffs from her lot gathering dust in the attic. And to top it off, she plonked her Cher wig from the local talent competition on my head. Oh the indignity! Lesson learnt. Fellas, don't forget the missus' birthday! For the love of all that's holy this chap had better pack up soon. Painting is of one of the Wolryche gentlemen, either Sir Francis or John and is painted in the style of the Dutch master, Willem Wissing but likely by Sir Godfrey Kneller. Image shows an oil painting in a heavy gilt frame hanging on a dark coloured wall. There's a bit of light flare in the bottom left corner (occupational hazard when you're little) but it doesn't interrupt the main scene. It's a portrait of gentleman from head to lower thigh. He is wearing a big dark brown curly wig, a military breastplate over which lies a white lace cravat (yes it's white the combination!), brocade jacket underneath and a sizeable lumpy red sash. One hand is resting on a plumed helmet whilst the other gloved hand, holds a baton. I imagine at the time he looked quite the fashionable gent!
