Only by accident sometimes. A light shining straight up to the ceiling certainly does not.

OK - if light travels in a curve, such that the top of a ship is seen before the bottom it is *STILL* the case that we would be able see the deck of the ship and not just the side at long distances. We can not do that (unless we are above the deckline of course) so light can not be curving. Or does the light that would have been heading straight toward us curve but the light heading up at a slifht angle not curve?
