Reconstruction of Grey Friars in Leicester

Hi everybody,I just found a wonderful link on the Richard III Society of New South Wales's home page. A fly through reproduction of the Grey Friars in Leicester.It is beautiful though it made me a bit dizzy flying through thechurch.By the way, has any of you been to the SOA Exhibition at Burlington House? I was there. Unfortunately the pictures of Richard and Edward hang quite high, so I could not examine the paintings closely. But the high quality of these pictures was evident even from the distance. Richard's face looked very friendly down onme and I wondered once again that Frederick Hepburn in his article on the Portraiture of Richard III saysthat "his mouth looks stern perhaps even severe".The exhibition is only open till 1. August!Eva

Eva, I could not get the fly over to load. But, it sounds lovely, if a little turbulent.as I age, I am not as fearless about heights and small and enclosed spaces.
