How does Act II, Scene 3, when Romeo goes to Friar Laurence’s cell at dawn, contrast with the action of the night before, when Romeo and Juliet declare their love? What do dawn and daytime signify to Romeo and Juliet’s relationship, and how does this scene tie into the light/darkness visual motif of the play?

when they are in the dark it is like there love is being hidden, while when they are in the light its like that is when they dont have to have there love in the dark.

taking into account their love story, the dark and light motive could be seen as a representation of what they are living, a prohibited love. At night, Romeo is able to see Juliet, when nobody is around when their family and friends cannot find them.  At night, they are "protected", no witnesses just the two of them. On the country, the light seems to give the couple some kind of hope. It is the Friar who apparently has the solution not only for them to share their love but also for the families to stop their fight. During the day, it seems that there is a chance for their love to succeed.
