I am constantly trying to get a satisfactory shot of stained glass church windows;try as I may,I cannot seem to hit what I really want. This is one of my nearest so far; Honest comments (good or bad) appreciated

I agree with Nezih. It is a beauty shot with beauty colours and lights. But it has a distortion that was added to it by the wide-angle lens and the angle of the shot (you took it up a bit).
If you use a les with longer focal length, this effect will be smaller, but I think that you had to correct it during the PP.

I didn't dare to say it Nezih!
I love stained glass windows and photographing them however, I particularly like the effect of metering on the window and thus darkening the surround.
Nice window though Larry - from a Heathen!

Nice shot Larry. Forget about getting the surround correctly exposed, go for the coulourful glass, back lit of course, and under expose slightly so you don't blow the highlights.
