This is more or less what the ceiling fan in my bedroom looks like to me first thing in the morning before I am fully awake and before I put my glasses on.

The ceiling of the Butsuden is covered with a “clouds and dragon” painting, a popular ceiling decoration in large Zen halls. Dragons bring rain and, in this context, the “rain” sent by the dragon is Buddhist teaching, falling on worshipers as they sit in the hall.

The ceilings of the Louvre are as fantastic as the art on display.

The parish church of Great Witley is a revelation (no pun intended). This is the most ornate and highly decorated Anglican church I have ever visited.

Public buildings, including restaurants and pubs, often have panels or decorations on the ceiling to muffle noise and to create an ambiance. They often go unnoticed on a conscious level but still have an effect on an unconscious level. if you make a point of looking up, you may be surprised by what you will see. These elements on the ceiling of a mall almost escaped my attention. They remind me of "f-holes" on violins.
