Everybody in Dallas takes this photograph. I have several times. Still, it’s an amazing scene and you never really can capture its beauty. It’s a surprise the first time you see it – especially concerning the drab (though interestingly-shaped) exterior of the chapel.

I’ve never seen a photo of the inside. It’s quite wonderful. I’m wondering about the small white lights. At first, I saw them as light bulbs. Then, I decided it might be natural sunlight shining in — and that the number and arrangement of lights would vary during the day, depending on factors like building shadow falling on them.
Anyway: great photo.
Sorry, those are light bulbs, and the number and arrangement depends on how often they get up their to change the bulbs.
Well, then. That’s ok — there’s still that element of chance that’s kind of fun.
