In their own way windows have special significance. Right from early civilization a window represented a portal into another realm. Occasionally, God opens a window just for a moment and we might see things with renewed clarity. Light enters through a window and illuminates what has little or no light. The same light enters the camera lens. The effect may be a softening of forms kindling the romantic eye. On the other hand a sunbeam takes the eye to only that which is lit. Both share the same window. One pliable and one brutal through the window.

Window Light
In their own way windows have special significance. Right from early civilization a window represented a portal into another realm. Occasionally, God opens a window just for a moment and we might see things with renewed clarity. Light enters through a window and illuminates what has little or no light. The same light enters the camera lens. The effect may be a softening of forms kindling the romantic eye. On the other hand a sunbeam takes the eye to only that which is lit. Both share the same window. One pliable and one brutal through the window.
