Flickr Groups - Stained Glass and St. Louis
The pool of images available on Flickr grows larger and larger, with more than 90,000 images coming up if you search for 'stained glass'. Better these days to do a search in 'Groups' for 'stained glass'. More than 200 groups come up, showcasing specific categories such as English Pre-Victorian stained glass, Stained Glass in Brazil, and my favorite, a larger group featuring Stained Glass Details.

In my desire to go deeper and deeper into searching out obscure photos of stained glass, I even ended up doing a search for 'stained glass' within the group 'Stl Architecture'. Speaking as one who has covered a good amount of stained glass in St. Louis, I found this especially interesting. There are nice photos of windows in places I've covered already - places like St. Mark's Episcopal and The Cathedral Basilica and the Really Big Jesus at Holy Redeemer in Webster Groves.
...and there are also a few maddeningly anonymous curiosities like this window, presumably in St. Louis, but with no specific location given and no other info.
