Centerburg

Not As I Will

Stained Glass, Window, Church, Religious, Jesus, Prayer, Christ

This magnificent stained glass window is one of several at the Centerburg Christian Church in Centerburg, Ohio. The artist depicts Jesus Christ praying in the Garden of Gethsemane.

There is so much to see in this image. First and foremost is the vivid colors and marvelous detail in this huge window. This is my favorite of three windows in the Centerburg Christian Church that are about 2 stories tall. Some details to look for…there are three diciples who are shown sleeping on the right edge of the photo. Above them you see the city of Jerusalem. The colors and detail of the tree and other vegetation is wonderful. You can see the title of this window in the bottom, center panel.  It reads, “Not As I Will But As Thou Wilt.” Below the title credit is given to “Ladies Aid Society.” There is one quirky (and embarrassing) feature of note. In the lower left corner of the window sill sits a plastic water bottle. It, no doubt, was left by some church worker before I arrived and I didn’t notice it or I surely would have removed it before photographing this great work of art. That horizontal bar that covers the top of the window is a projection screen used by the church during services.

This image is a compilation of three separate photos. The window was too large to fit in the camera’s field of view so I snapped three frames – top, middle and bottom areas – and combined them using photo processing software.

I’ve posted other windows from this church – Vestibule Glass and I Stand At The Door And Knock.

Vestibule Glass

Religious, Religion, Stained Glass, Stained Glass Window, Jesus

This is the remarkable stained glass window that graces the vestibule of the Centerburg Christian Church in Centerburg, OH. This small town church, established in 1897, is filled with beautiful, hand painted, stained glass from early last century.

I’m a big fan of good stained glass. This particular type of stained glass – where much of it was actually hand-painted – is the best. This church features some very large stained glass windows.  You can view one of the larger ones I posted earlier ,here – I Stand At The Door And Knock.

To truly experience and appreciate the detail and the craftsmanship of this art, you need to view the larger, full-screen version. Just click on the image above and the larger version will open in another browser tab.  Then, click on the larger photo to zoom in a bit more.

I Stand at the Door and Knock

Stained Glass, Window, Church Window, Church, One of the spectacular stained glass windows found in the sanctuary of the Centerburg Christian Church in Centerburg, Ohio. These, priceless, hand-painted windows date back to 1911.

This is just one of four very large stained glass windows, (and a number of smaller windows) that grace this church sanctuary. Each of large windows depict a Biblical teaching.  Hopefully I’ll have a chance to post more in the future.  A big, Thanks!, to Pastor Jeff Perry and the members of his flock for allowing me access to the building to capture and share the beauty and majesty of their stained glass.

The process to get this image was difficult. This windows are so large, I had to photograph them in sections.  To process them I had to stitch the individual photos together and then try to correct the natural distortion that comes from the lens and the angles inherent in photographing a large scene at close range.  I spent many hours on this one image and it is filled with flaws.  Still, the beauty created, more than a hundred years ago, by the stained glass artists overshadows any flaws in my processing.  Hopefully, with more practice, I’ll improve my process.

This is definitely an image you will want to look at enlarged, to witness the incredible color and detail in this glass.  Click on the image and a full-screen version will open in a new browser tab. Then be sure and click on the photo again and it will enlarge more for an even closer look.
