Welcoming the light

A few days ago we had the longest night (21st June). I was on retreat at the time and we had a lovely winter solstice ritual that evening. The next day we celebrated "welcoming the light" as we look forward to longer days. Synchronistically I am now participating in another photography on-line course with various contemplative tasks every few days. Today's challenge was to use a photo to illustrate the quote you see below. First I had to learn how to add text to a photo. (I'm finding Pic Monkey to be a very good free on-line tool for various photography editing and making collages etc.)
