I know it means 'let there be light', which pretty much means ANY photo when you think about it literally, but I took it to mean the light source is in the picture, one could almost say contre jour.
 
There must be a light source in the picture rather than it just lighting the scene..
 
Some really great entries in this challenge and whilst different some clear themes running through the entries.

If you haven't put your shot in yet a gentle reminder that the challenge will close on Sunday night!
 
Quick reminder that the challenge closes at 8pm tonight, get those last minute images in!
 
Last orders,many last minute entries?
 
OK folks, entry closed and voting thread is up.
 
At the risk of thoroughly confusing @excalibur2 (this is NOT the current old film challenge, Brian!), I've been thinking about @Andysnap 's rainbow shot for a while. Apart from being a very nice shot, the thing that stuck in my mind is that the part within the rainbow is bright, and the part outside it is darker. At the time I thought maybe it was some kind of weird camera, film or dev issue, but lately I've been thinking that the light that makes the rainbow bright has to come from somewhere, so maybe it's the part outside the rainbow whose light is refracted into the rainbow itself. Sorry if this a "d'oh!" issue, but I've never understood the optics of rainbows other than the lightbeing refracted from raindrops (between the viewer and the sun?). Why this should result in such an ordered shape escapes me!
 
Confusion? It's nothing compared to the natural eye thread :D
