I was staying with my parents’ overnight after attending an inter-club photo competition in nearby Frinton. It had been raining all day, so I had to resort to something indoors before I went to bed. More info. Ref: D1070-08
The New York Public Library (NYPL) is a public library system in New York City. With nearly 53 million items, the New York Public Library is the second largest public library in the United States (behind the Library of Congress), and fourth largest in the world. It is a private, non-governmental, independently managed, nonprofit corporation operating with both private and public financing. The library has branches in the boroughs of Manhattan, The Bronx, and Staten Island, and affiliations with academic and professional libraries in the metropolitan area of New York State. The City of New York's other two boroughs, Brooklyn and Queens, are served by the Brooklyn Public Library and the Queens Library, respectively. The branch libraries are open to the general public and consist of circulating libraries. The New York Public Library also has four research libraries which are also open to the general public.
I was trying to get a balance between the actual light source from the cap and the shadow on the roof above, without trying to over expose the light source.

Oh dear, another late night, another frantic search for something to photograph. As my good friend touchingthelight says, “There’s always a lamp”. More info. Ref: D1301-152
taken on Light Night, but nothing to do with it other than they are lights (In a building where you're not meant to take photos... cough cough)
New lampshade in my hall. The first one I have changed. Lots more to do.
Saturday, 28th September 2019.
Electricity came to Luppitt in 1959, and the church was connected that same year. The previous oil lights were replaced; I'm not sure whether these are original switches or later fitment.
At the same time, the heating system was fitted with a pump, instead of relying on the original thermosyphon circulation. That original pump is still in place fifty two years later (although I did overhaul it about eight years ago): quite a tribute to traditional British engineering.
This is a light fitting I saw in a furniture shop. The light is not turned on.
See what it looks like when the light is turned on.
