ESV, Genesis 1:

1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form and void,
The dark earth was formless and empty. It was not made of baryonic molecules at this point.

and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
God created dark heavens and dark earth in the form of dark waters/matters. Photons have yet to exist:

3 And God said, “Let there be light [photons],” and there was light.
Visible photons were created. Physical space-time began. God could speak outside of time. God is not bounded by space-time.

4 And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
This was not a 24-hour day as we know it today. The first day began with dark matter.

9 And God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear.” And it was so. 10 God called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered together he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
God turned the dark waters/matter earth into ordinary-matter earth.

and you know all this how? Were you there with God when He spoke things into existence?

And yes it was a 24 hour day as we know them. Why? Because god said so!

Genesis 1

King James Version

1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

I believe personally that God created all things out of nothing. It doesn't say when these waters were created, perhaps they were leftovers of a prior dispensation of creation, can't say personally, however it seems that God created all things out of nothing. Just him being light, darkness also was on the outer edge of his light.
