Armed with only a Canon point and shoot, I take a picture
that makes me smile.
Yet, photographer Molly, searches out the light because
“Light in photography" is everything, according to her. Always embrace the
light. She uses her eye to do that but her “eye” is supported by her textbooks
and course manuals that taught her “light meters read and photographers
interpret.” Light can actually stir the soul.
Philosophically, all of that photography jargon seems
analogous with the theology of those who see Jesus Christ as the Light of the
World. (John 8:12) The important Light. The Light that gave definition to creation (Genesis 1:3) and
stirs the soul. Knowing the One who is Light is everything to a Christian.
Sometimes just seeing light captured in creation reminds me
of the One who created that light...
…..and I simply smile.
