3) Amusement

4) Because “amusement” implies something entertaining, playful, and fun, most would think of amusement parks. I thought that this image of the Santa Monica pier would be a good choice, however, because it is similar to an amusement park in that it has rides, but it also has the amusement, wonder, and fun of the beach. Everyone enjoys a beach sunset, and though it may not be amusing per say, the sunset and relaxed, almost isolated/secluded beach environment encourages the amusement at the pier to be explosive! Amusement parks at night give a sense of security for freedom of spirit; it’s almost as if while you’re there, no one can judge you or think you are uncool for enjoying being there. The reflection of the ferris wheel lights into the water is enticing, inviting, and amusing; it looks like tie dye!
