Scene
Sight, Spectacle
noun
When light shines on a scene, it's still a scene. The light is here to create some drama, also making this a sight or a spectacle.
光景 refers to a scene or sight that leaves an impression, whether it's unfolding in front of you or recalled in your mind. It's often used in a poetic way to describe moments that are especially vivid — whether touching, beautiful, striking, or painful.
This is a jukugo word, which usually means on'yomi readings from the kanji. If you know the readings of your kanji you'll know how to read this as well.
