Photographs that capture the sun recite the poetry of luminosity. A day becomes happier when the sun is shining more brightly; the room becomes cosier when the lamp is at the right intensity; and the fear of darkness goes away if someone remembers to turn the light on. The well-lit, illuminated has always been a guiding symbol for us, be it the meditative candle flame, the opening of a tunnel or the mere fact that the rising sun will always be east and we will know where to go. Life flourishes in the actual sunlight and our religions and faith have always venerated the power of the flame across time and lands.
