Though it was pitch dark, we could still see

Hi

Do you find this sentence correct and natural? Any suggestion is welcome.

Though it was pitch dark, we could still peek over the dead bodies in the remaining light of the bomb blast.

Thanks,

Tom

Thanks, Clive.

So, what about:

It was dark, but we could peek over the dead bodies in the remaining light of the bomb blast.

Shouldn't it be from the bomb blast?

Thanks again,

When a bomb goes off, there is a bright flash, but it doesn't linger. What do you mean?

Yes, you are right, Barbara. Thanks! I should change the sentence completely.

I also wouldn't use "peek."

So, let's see what you come up with.
