You can really get a sense of the height from this one.
I feel so short.
There's something very ecclesiastical about this one - a huge stained glass window, a scale much bigger and more dramatic than that of everyday domestic architecture. Battersea Power Station has been called 'a temple of power' and a cathedral to the God of electricity, and the comparison is a valid one. IN the early days electricity must have fascinated and awed people in equal measure, and the sound in this room, of massive generators and turbines, must have been biblical in itself.
the powerplant my dad works in has large windows just like this where the turbines are.
This one has "mosaic" qualities. Great shot!
