Looking back through my travel photos I see that in many places we visited there was, on our agendas, an Abbey, Cathedral, Chapel, Church, Convent, Monastery, Mosque, Pagoda, Synagogue, Temple or other place of worship. As we travel along the road I often take snaps of God's houses we pass by. These buildings range from ordinary to ostentatious.
I am taking a literal approach to this theme
Let there be Light. I have chosen images of lamps, lights and lanterns I've seen in Gods' Houses.

Jill, I have a similar photo of the Kyoto Temple. My daughter sent it to me when she was an exchange student and visited Kyoto.
ReplyDeleteAn amazing selection of lights from so many religious houses. I particularly like the temple lanterns in Vietnam -- so colorful and uplifting.
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying your lovely, luminous photos!
