The ripe orange light reflected by the river's water, creating an orange river spot by white light reflection, an orange platinum river flow. the dark shadows of everything became darker and darker. The contraband night reach out the nature.

Nuance of the day turn out so intense, sense of feeling, listening, and touching keened. a full blue moon brighten up the murky day, it was like a wraith-disc hanging up in the sky, its light bright as a diamond flame. The wide slow curved water moving on the sly. Ripling and burbling water feed the dark night.

"Hoo, hooo" an owl sonant, embellish the night with bright sky flickered by nature's fancy "star".

The plant is spelled by this scenery, but minute by minute, atmosphere getting cooler. The wind stabed into every piece of body. Furs Wrapped animals. In the other hand the tiny plant lonely face this. But that is okay, the magnificent nature warm him inside.
