optics - Is the number of rays projected by a source of light finite?


Take a source of light which gives out infinite number of rays, each ray with finite number of photons and each photon with a finite amount of energy,


Then, Aren't the number of photons become infinite and hence the energy in the beam of light becomes infinite? If this is wrong, then how's this finite?
