We're testing lighting options. If we finish the bedroom ceilings with a ledge (instead of continuing the tongue and groove horizontally across), we can make use of indirect lighting.
Here is a photo of the test situation, with lights in the first two bays only. We would put lights in every bay if this is the route we go.
On a positive note, the light could look like a sunlight from a skylight coming in from above. On a down note, it could look like we didn't bother to finish the ceiling. Pondering....
