The header photo is at the Monastery, just a few miles from our house and the other two are from All Souls Church in Eastbourne.<br />Looking forward to your post this weekend! <br />Hope you are healing after your accident. Bones knitting together, it is an amazing thing.

I'm going to re-use the first quote as a closing thought in a post I'm due to publish this weekend because it captures exactly what I was thinking - but with much more eloquence. What wonderful church imagery. I'm particulalrly fond of the banner photograph (blue light in the church) because of its simplicity and raw emotional impact.
