I sometimes find myself fixated by windows, especially these old windows that I’ve photographed many times, including this image yesterday.
These windows are part of the Beth Eden Chapel on Naskeag Road, a one-room church and meeting place that was finished in 1900. You can peer through the Chapel at the maple trees on its north, while the shadows of the maple trees on your side seem to be trying to enter the windows there.

This Chapel usually is vacant now, but it’s not hard to imagine the hope, joy, grief, and solace it has hosted as the place for a small rural community’s christenings, weddings, funerals, and prayers for the suffering.
