By the Xuanwu Lake, dusk paints a picturesque scene, and the most enchanting moments quietly bloom!

That day, I made a special trip to Xuanwu Lake just to capture the legendary stunning sunset. You know, I found a good spot by the lake early on and sat waiting for the sun to slowly set. While waiting, I took photos of the sparkling lake water, the couples leisurely strolling by the lake, and the willow trees that were dyed golden by the setting sun. But, just as the sunset was about to happen, a large patch of clouds suddenly drifted across the sky, as if someone had covered their eyes, and the sunlight was abruptly blocked. I was so disappointed, really, it felt like a prepared feast was suddenly taken away. But then again, life is always full of these big and small regrets. However, it's okay, if I didn't capture it this time, I'll come again next time! I packed up my camera, and although I felt a little down, I also felt that this trip to Xuanwu Lake was still fruitful. At least I saw the beautiful lake scenery and felt the tranquility and comfort. So, that's life, there are regrets, but there is also hope. Next time I come, I will definitely capture that stunning Xuanwu Lake sunset!
