Song-ography: Light up the world

I see...
bright blessed days...
 and dark sacred nights...

Light.

It struck me as I stood amongst throngs of children in a house at Plymouth Plantation, beneath these stunning beams of lights, that if not for the light, we'd be unable to see the amazing objects around us - we would simply be in a world of darkness.

And [suddenly] I think to myself...what a wonderful world...

Wow, the strength of these beams reminds me of a flood light or a beacon! Quite amazing. Thanks for joining in on Song-ography.

Great way to remind us how powerful light is and what a wonderful world we live on to benefit from its strength.

Even more standing in a place where it was natural light...or a little bit of candle light. I love stepping back in time, or taking a child/person to see something for the first time because it seems to open my eyes and heart to new perspectives!

It's all about the light. Always. Really cool photo. I think I prefer the color version. Plymouth Plantation. Haven't been there since I was nine. MIght be time to go back. Bet there were some great photo ops.

Super interpretation. Loving the beams of light. Reminds me that without the Lord (the ultimate source of light) the world would also be in darkness. It is a wonderful world.

Is that through a thatched roof?
A strong beam of light perhaps giving hope.

What a great take on the prompt. If it weren't for that light we wouldn't be able to appreciate all the beauty (and history) around us.
