Autumn Cider Press in Yogyakarta Workshop

Rich amber sunset light floods the wooden screw press, highlighting the warm grain of the aged timber. The heavy iron screw gleams under the honeyed glow, resting against a backdrop of smooth workshop shelves. Deep shadows pool quietly along the walls, against the vibrant energy of the machinery. Dust motes float in the sunbeams, settling on the press's textured surface. The dry season air leaves the wood looking crisp and polished. one drop of cider rests on the rim of the collection basin, catching the light before sliding down the curved metal.
