Under the glow of the lantern, light up my life…

Today’s theme makes me thank Photo 101 for giving me the purpose to share some of the numerous collections of light pictures that I have taken.

My dear Himself has had to learn lessons in patience when we go out, because I will ooh and aah over this and that, pointing and clicking away with contentment.

Dubai is a trail blazer and a light bulb of a city. They’ve got the lights going in so many ramifications especially at those high end stores, that the twinkle of the lights beckons to us like moths and we are attracted.

It’s as if the luminescent of the  bulbs whisper to you to step in and part with some money. The trick is to leave your credit cards at home and take pocket change just in case 😉

Imagine how life must have been in the dark ages before electricity :/ Candles were meant only for the wealthy back then and cost a fortune. For some reason this brings a quote to my mind which says that ‘putting off someone’s candle, will not make yours to shine brighter.’

Even an ogre can look like a prince in the hazy gaze of a dim lantern, but just make sure you get a good look at him in the brightness of broad daylight 😉

Thankfully, the days of our live’s which revolves around light of the day and darkness of the night are made sweeter under the glow of a bright bulb.
