The midnight sky is pitch black with only a slight gleam of light emanating from the moon. The night is so silent that even a pin drop could be heard from miles away. No one is stirring and the world has drifted off into a deep sleep. The night seems blissfully peaceful. But the silence is torn by the sound of rustling leaves in the distance. Two dark shadows emerge from the forest and gaze heavily at the sleeping house. The two figures slowly creep towards the house with devious thoughts racing

Light in Darkness Where there is no light there is only darkness. Light is a universal symbol for something good or something peaceful. However, there also the universal symbol of something dark meaning something bad or disruptive. In the light, we are able to see things more clearly therefore, do more in the light. In addition, people’s smiles, eyes, and personalities often depict light. During the night, it is hard for anyone to see or do anything productive because of this darkness of the night

Even in the darkest conditions there are tiny bits of light even if your eyes can't see it they are there. Night vision goggles are a good example of letting you see the light. How do they let you see this light? Why is it green? Night vision goggles use image enhancement technology that collects all visible light including infrared and ultraviolet. It amplifies it so we can see in the dark. One way to make us see is thermal imaging, Anything that emits heat will show in the form of infrared

As I began my walk on the Crescent Trail, it started by walking through a forest, which felt good because I was away from the hot sun. I could hear birds chirping and animals scurrying. The environment was calm and peaceful as I was walking through the forest area. I thought about how different the trail was than walking in a public place such as a mall or a school hallway in between periods. It was nice to be away from things made by humans and to only be around things from nature. As I was walking

White, that’s what I notice when I opened my eyes. I searched the area around myself, and the only item I can observe is just a white area. There were no people, buildings, plants, or animals; just a blank canvas world. At first, I didn’t know what to do, until I started to call out to hear if someone is here. I called out three times, and the only sound I can hear is my voice echoing. I devote myself to staying where I am, so someone comes by or walk to search any living being. I decided to walk

“The moon is at her full, and riding high, floods the calm fields with light. The airs that hover in the summer sky, are all asleep tonight,” (William C Bryant). The moon is a symbol quite often used by several artists, as it has a serene yet powerful effect on human emotions, and the human soul. Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon, is very beautiful and rides in her chariot, pulling the moon across the night sky, and falling in love with the shepherd Endymion (). She is represented by the artist

The moon, a symbol of femininity and romance while simultaneously representing the rhythm of time, is a reoccurring image used within Shakespeare’s play, A Midsummer Night’s Dream. This image is also used to embody the magical world of the supernatural. With so many roles, the moon fails to be just an item in the background. The moons many meanings help shape the play into the classic that it is. The title of the Shakespeare play automatically references the moon suggesting that it is not just

I definitely think I take my eyes for granted. These organs let me see the world, learn about my surroundings, and see my family and friends. I have never previously thought about how I have the ability to see and what process my eyes and brain go through in order for me to be able to see. I knew absolutely nothing about how they work. Learning about it was very interesting, and I now know it is a very complicated process. It is amazing that so many things happen in order for me to have sight, and
