    1970s California Coast, USA

    You were a budding photographer. You stood on the coast and giggled as you took pictures of everything that caught your eye.

    The wind was noisily driving the surf waves and the seagulls were singing heart-rendingly. The weather was noisy and the sky was sparkling with thunder near the lighthouses. You wanted to capture this.

    "You're crazy. Why a thunderstorm?" your friend, Charlie giggles at how excited you are to photograph the thunderstorm. You were both entering a photography competition so you took your parents car and drove him to the lighthouses because he wanted to take pictures of them for the competition but suddenly the weather started to get bad and you decided to take a picture of the thunderstorm.

    "Because it's beautiful. But you know what's even more beautiful?" you giggle contentedly as you catch the storm in your lens.

    "What?" he says with a calm and serene smile. Suddenly you point your camera at him and take a picture of him.

    "Hey! Stop it, I don't like it!"
