Meaning of Darkness doesn't necessarily involve darker toned Low Key images nor does it have to be a negative topic. Not all Low Key images will have a good home in this challenge and also since this is also about the concept of Darkness many other kinds of shots can develop from this idea.
Darkness could be the cozy time at the end of day when one can relax and dwell on the day's thoughts? Lights dim, cup of tea in hand. Or just forget about dwelling on thoughts ;) just relax and blank your mind.
For some more ideas on what you can shoot. Could be a night time landscape (not overly bright of course), an inside of a dark movie theater/cinema, a misty overcast darkened forest scene. As a concept it could be lights out, a hand about to turn off the bed side lamp. Even though the shot will have the light source right in it and the shot will be somewhat lit up, it's the concept of what will happen.
