Light and sound show returns to medieval cathedral
Finbarr WebsterVisitors can experience a "trip through history" during a light and sound show at a medieval cathedral.
Salisbury Cathedral's Sarum Lights was created by art company Luxmuralis and explores art, photography and societal changes across the centuries.
The theme this year is time, with the event running every evening until Saturday.
Peter Walker, artistic director of Luxmuralis, said: "This large-scale installation is art on an epic scale, allowing visitors to experience how time has inspired and influenced scientists, historians and artists."
He added the trip through history allows people to learn how time "determines all our lives".
The "immersive" experience includes examples of early cave paintings and a walk through Einstein’s Theory of Relativity.

An interactive installation called A Note to Myself will encourage visitors to write a message to themselves at other points in their lives.
The postcards will then become part of a cascade in the cathedral.
Sarum Lights is running from 17:30 GMT each evening until 9 November, and there will also be low sound screenings from between 17:30 and 18:30 on 5 and 6 November.
