York Minster Doors
The great west door of York Minster is a formal processional entrance but not used for the mass of tourists who visit the cathedral each day. The South Transept is the main entrance to York Minster. The famous stained glass of the Rose Window is above the entrance. This window was damaged by a fire in 1984.
Photographing Orchids
Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden is a botanical garden located on 380 acres of rolling meadows, woodlands and lakefront property in Belmont, North Carolina. The William H. Williamson, III, Orchid Conservatory is the Carolinas’ only 8,000-square-foot, five-story glass house dedicated to a display of orchids and tropical plants. Our camera club – Catawba Valley Camera Club, Hickory – visited the orchid conservatory a few months back and we are posting images from that trip.
During our visit there was an art exhibition by local students – old doors and shutters painted with orchid artwork.

Cotswold Cottages
Famous for quintessentially English market towns and villages built from honey-colored stone, the Cotswolds are a range of gently rolling hills and the largest area of outstanding natural beauty in England and Wales
The Cotswold style of architecture is a unique style and is sometimes called the storybook style, with buildings made in this form also sometimes referred to as Tudor cottages. Cotswold houses often have a prominent chimney, often near the front door of the house.
