The sun is everywhere around us as it brings us the light so we can see, and the energy that helps to grow our food. There are times, however, when the sun is more noticeable – especially in contrast to the absence of sun:

Love the angles.
Thank you. I am working on a post in which I will show more of this building.
Now that is so stunning! Thanks for sharing hon! Great entry!
*hugs*
I was curious to see whether you would recognise the building Sonel….
Sun through the windows is very nice
Judy
Thanks Judy. It was quite a sunny day when I took this and the natural light in the buidling is let in through windows such as these.
Wow, this is a great photo – feels like I’m falling into it!
Thank you. I took this while standing on top of a stairwell.
You may have found it challenging but you have pulled it off brilliantly!
Thank you Gilly. I was not quite sure whether it was relevant
Love the way you say especially in contrast without the sun
Thanks Scrappy. Saying dark would have taken the focus off of the sun and I did not want to do that
I agree, its about the light not the dark
wow looks so wonderful, I am at peace just looking at your windows and the way the light peers through.
Thank you. I think that was the intention of the architect of the building, Gerard Moerdijk.
Hi,
A great photo, the windows are very unusual, but I love the look.
Thank you Mags. They do not make windows like this anymore.
Great shot! I love the different aspect for the theme. Executed very well:)
Thank you Casey
Awesome shot Colline! And to answer your question, my favorite time to notice the sun is in the very first moments of it’s breaking over the horizon.
Those are beautiful moments Alex. The world is starting to wake up and yet it is still peaceful and quiet so that you can hear bird song.
Nice angle and architecture. The sun bright well.
Thank you Cocomino. I will post some more pictures of the actual building as it is quite interesting.
I love those huge windows and the sun shining through… Lovely!
Thank you so much

Thank you Polly
Lovely photo:)
What a lovely picture
I look forward to sharing the other pictures I took on that day with you.
Inspiring my friend. Light gives us hope that better things comes with each new day. Beautiful…Thanks for today’s inspiration.
So true. With each new day as the sun rises and lights up our indoor spaces, it brings with it hope and the chance at a new beginning. May today be a new beginning for you.
Beautiful post Colline ,Amazing work for the theme Sun
Thank you for the compliment Jake
A nice interpretation.
I love the angle you shot this photo. Great for the challenge.
BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
Thank you Francine. I actually took it from the top of a stairway.
Great shot. Bright and beautiful. ( you even got the staircase in this one )
I was so tempted to use this scene for the staircase challenge as well but thought that would be a bit of cheating
That is an amazing sun view, beautiful!
Thank you Marcia – the light captured my attention as I was walking up the stairwell. I was pleased with the photo result.
nice pic
