 I'm actually replying on my own post by I went back and again reread 
my and agaist I had replied to the wrong post.  I have to give it to 
all the previous posters.  I would not have noitced all the fine 
deatiles you all have but it all adds up to me and make complete 
sense to me at least.  The light is coming in form the top.  That 
happen when Harry fell in the pensieve if I remember, correctly.  
Help me with a quote please.

Since the pensieves substance was mercury-like it would also reflect 
light like a mirror.  I also think that is why he would appear to be 
left handed and all that candles would appear to be backward and his 
glasses would appaer to reflect imiage or shine back light.

So he doesn't necessarily haveto be in a room with many doors, just 
have to me in someone or Dombleore's memory room with many doors.

That is if you accept my idea.  Kary
