Ballot Lockbox in Lagos Office Night

Cool neutral light from overhead fixtures washes over a sturdy metal ballot lockbox resting on a cluttered operations desk in Oshodi, Lagos. String lights cast a soft, uneven glow across brushed metal surfaces, worn plastic binders, and stacks of cardboard boxes filled with laminated election cards. The rainy season is evident in the faint condensation on the window glass behind the desk, where dark night sky presses against the glass. Negative space surrounds the lockbox, showing the organized intent of the workspace. Shadows fall sharply across the worn plastic handles and the grain of the cardboard, highlighting the texture of the materials under the mixed artificial and window light.
