See It On A Postcard's Thursday Postcard Hunt starting the year with Light and sunshine
 |
| "Sun with Huge Prominence" |
The star that gives life (if you are on a planet 93 million miles away), a sphere of hot plasma. This ultraviolet photograph of the sun was taken on the 19th December 1973 during NASA's third Skylab mission.

| "Birches" - Hannu Hautala |
Meanwhile on Earth in the depths of a Finnish winter when daylight is brief it gives us this magical image.
 |
| "The Tower and the Fountain" Robert Fouseau |
Pisa, where the sun is warmer and the photographer does not suffer as much for his art to capture the sun's rays.
 |
| "Dove Cottage", Grasmere, Lake District |
Sunlight and dappled shade. Once the home of William Wordsworth and his sister Dorothy. When William married Mary his family would expand even more which meant that eventually they all had to move to larger lodgings and leave their sojourn of "
plain living but high thinking" behind. Today it is museum.
 |
| Étel River |
On a tiny islet of Nichtarguer on the
Ria d'Etel is a much photographed little house bathed in sunshine.
