Isn’t it a wonder that one of the first rules in composition when dealing with art or photography is that the human eye is automatically drawn to the lightest part of the photo. If your intended subject isn’t the lightest part, your viewer may be confused or distracted, so it is best to use that to your advantage when composing; to make the subject and the light areas in the photo or painting related.

We are inherently drawn to light; it intrigues us, it inspires us, it triggers our curiosity and we often in life go searching after it. In the scriptures another way to describe truth is light; and God is described as being all truth and all light. Light chases out the darkness and shows us the way. It gives us comfort and broadens our view. We as children of God are inherently drawn to light and to Him. It is shown to us in everything if we would pause to notice.
