As the Sun Goes Down

Early in the morning. The day has just begun. The composition mimics that of the sun poking above the horizon at dawn. A single blue roof can be seen, perfectly matching in colour to the sky. A day of exploration awaits.

The vibrant colours of the island shout at me from all directions, beckoning me to walk down little alleyways and pulling me away from the crowd. I don’t know where I am but I keep moving forward. I look up and see the pink flowers of a tree against a bold blue and white background. I take a photo.

I continue on and manage to find my way back to a main street, filled with people. I push my way through the crowd to take a look over the wall. More buildings and the sea stretch out in front of me.

The sun is slowly setting. Shadows lengthen and the vibrant colours of the island become warmer and more muted. I make my way to a viewpoint, hoping to witness the sun sink into the horizon.

The warm orange colour of the sunset is intensified by the tinted lens of my sunglasses. Everything is now covered in an orange hue. This day of adventure comes to a close.
