Pairs #5: Outside/Inside (Winter Photography Scavenger Hunt)

When you walk up to my front door, with the sun at your back, this is what you see:

Once inside, if you turn around, you see this:

We have beautiful stained glass windows in our front door.

And I knew I wanted to photograph them for Item # 13 Stained Glass Window in the wintertime photo scavenger hunt.  In addition to this basic picture, I want to share a few other photographs which give you a better sense of the beauty of stained glass.

Colors bouncing on our interior walls

We used to have seashore-themed stained glass in these window, but we replaced it last year with this geometric shape designed by Johnny Gordon from Louisville, Kentucky. It was such fun to work with an artist to come up with something that really fit our home and our aesthetic. I'm linking up this week with Helena's Photography Pairs meme and calling the top two photos: outside/inside. 

I'm also linking up with the January end of the month Link Up for the Winter Photographic Scavenger Hunt. As for my progress, I only have six left (in bold below).
