Barber Pauses at Riverside Shed Dawn Russeifa

White frost coats the metal handles of barber tools resting on a rough wooden crate near the edge of a landing in Russeifa. A man in a dark coat stands with his gaze lifted toward a weathered shed across the misty water. The first light of dawn diffuses through the air, softening the dry season landscape into muted grays and pale blues. Ice crystals cover the bristles of combs and the blades of shears, glistening against the wood grain. The subject stands partially cut off by the left border of the view, showing quiet observation. A thin layer of white frost covers the ground, extending toward the calm, gray river surface where the shed sits isolated in the early morning haze. The shed's wooden planks show deep vertical lines against the pale sky.
