You might like to check this post educational out?
Rather than have the same post in two threads - it is in RockyTalky.
PLEASE POST ON THAT THREAD

Think about this ‘thought experiment’. Take a diamond or a ring and start looking at it toward the ceiling lights. Yuck? Then slowly move it down and find the best sparkle. Then facing the floor your head is between the lights blocking them Yuck!
Where are the lights. Can the diamond see the lights? Is your head blocking the lights?
No light = no diamond. Diamonds cease to exist in the dark ☹
If your head blocks the lights, there is less light.
If the diamond only gets its light from walls, it will not have much sparkle.
There are more sparkles with small lights than big...
