I visited my high school friend a couple of weeks ago with my fiancé, and while we were eating dinner, we saw this. It's a mountain (my friend told me the name of it, but I've forgotten by now) in San Luis Obispo, and all I could think was how beautiful it was because of simply the lighting. I feel like it's got this mysterious vibe because I can only see the silhouette, but it also has a comfortable, slightly romantic feel. The colours in the background are warm tones with blue hues, and even though the foreground colours--of the trees, powerlines, and mountain--are black, it doesn't have a frightening feel because we associate the background colours with a sunset, evoking emotions such as calmness, comfort, and confidence (as in confidence between friends, confidence following the vulnerability of sharing a secret). The small bits of pink that are highlights on the cars in front of the mountain make the photo deeper and maintain the homey feel of it all. It's almost wistful, and certainly full of imagination.
