I was sitting in one of the booths in the core on the left side when you first walk in. As I was eating my food, a fire truck pulled in and I watched the flashing red and blue lights against the wall of glass leading to Netherlands North.
Normally when I see the flashing lights of an emergency vehicle, I’m either driving past them, or they’re driving past me. I don’t remember the last time I looked at them and really took in the colors. As the red and blue lights kept flashing, there would be a second where they blended to create a beautiful deep purple. The contrast between the bright lights hitting the wall and the almost pitch black night sky was really a sight to take in, and allowed me to really appreciate the way different colors of light mix together and the new light they create.

I found this picture on a website by photographer, David Peterson. I was unable to find if he was the person who took it.
Theme: Romance
Although the wine and candles imply a romantic date, those items are not what make this picture exude romance. The dark and minimally lit (through blurred and dimmed lights) background give off a close and intimate setting. The sparkles of the wine glass also remind me of the way two people look at each other with stars in their eyes when they’re in love, which implies romance.

Laying in bed waiting to fall back asleep while staring at my closet doors, which had the shadows of the swinging tree branches that was caused by either the sun rising or the street lamps.
I was still half asleep because I woke up a couple of hours before I had planned to, and as I was laying there I noticed the shadows coming in through the window on my closet, looking like it could be a scene from a noir film. When I first saw them, it felt eery, like the beginning of a horror or suspense movie. However, as I kept observing them, it began to feel calming from the consistent swaying of the tree’s branches.

This is a photo of a sunrise I took looking out into the Atlantic Ocean from the 39th Street beach in Ocean City, Maryland at 6:21 am on July 22, 2021.
Theme: Sunrise/Sunset
The Sun appears to be a nice, small ball of white light surrounded by an orange aura. The surrounding orange reflects on the ocean’s surface, which makes it appear as if a line of fire is coming to greet you at the edge of the waves. There is also some nice “cloudage” in the sky, allowing for there to be a nice transition from the peach colored sky into the grayish-blue sky.
