A quiet city park at night, captured in black and white. A brick path winds through the scene, scattered with fallen leaves, while modern apartment buildings glow in the background. Streetlights cast soft pools of light, and a signpost marks the park as smoke-free. The scene feels still and contemplative. — Nighttime in St. Andrew's Park - 5 Oct, 2025 at 9:08 PM

Movie Mice Theatre

A whimsical miniature diorama of a “Movie Mice Theatre” is lit with glowing green lights at night. A marquee above reads “NOW SHOWING — GRAND OPENING.” Inside a clear display box below, tiny mouse figurines are posed at a grand opening celebration, complete with streamers, balloons, and a “Grand Opening” banner. One mouse sits at a small table with a cake, another pushes a baby carriage, and others are dressed up as if attending a party. The whole scene is nestled among garden plants, giving it a magical, hidden-world feel. — undefined - 25 Sep, 2025 at 8:28 PM

Red Light Signing Through my Window

A cozy apartment corner with potted plants lined along a window ledge, glowing under a dramatic red streetlight outside. The window looks out onto leafy trees bathed in vivid red light, with city buildings in the background. Inside, books and papers are stacked on a desk, pillows and plush toys rest on the couch, and the whole scene feels warm, cluttered, and intimate against the surreal red glow. — undefined - 25 Sep, 2025 at 7:53 PM

JSONFeed in Astro with @astrojs/rss

I wanted this website to publish both an RSS feed and a JSONFeed. The catch: I didn’t want to maintain two separate feed pipelines.
