Notes

Abstract:
The moon rose over the bay and was obscured by a patch of thin cloud. The moonlight went through it, glimmering on the water and making a pathway to the shore. However, the edge of the cloud in the low horizon was highlighted golden by moonlight and its body became impenetrably dark and solid. A boat was resting on the water. A silhouetted palm tree standing on the shore merged itself with dark cloud and only the feather-like leaves on the top could be perceived. The main color is dark green saturated with yellow, which adds a sense of mystery to the calm night.
