Becky B’s Square Light Challenge continues to inspire January’s photographs.

Taking up Becky’s January Square Challenge of LIGHT.
Not my house, but it is so inviting and the candles are flickering along the sidewalk.
And yes, that is the moon up at the top of the photo.

Becky says (via Cee’s Photography post of a lighthouse at Twilight)
I’m proposing our January squares are filled with words ending in light that means one or more of the following; sunlight, floodlights, firelight, skylights, candlelight, sidelights, starlight, footlights, moonlight, streetlights, torchlight, taillights, gaslight, headlights, or, as I have today, twilight – whether that be the astronomical, nautical or civil twilight. And feel free to find your own _____light, there are more than 50 words which end in light!
Silent Sunday

This evening Steve and I went to the Holiday Dinner and the lights display Let it Glow at the Phipps Conservatory in Schenley Park. The food was good and there were flickering candles in glass lanterns lighting the curvy paths throughout the Conservatory. The winter lights in the darkness were festive and fun to see.

Steve photographed me with Franco Harris who was gracious to all his fans.

After the baseball game, the Zambelli family Fireworks were beautiful.

I got the thumbs up through the pizza shop window that it was okay to take the photo

How does light affect an image?
Time of day. Time of year. Direction. Intensity. Source. Pollution. Weather conditions.
