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.
