Boatbuilder Dawn Harbor Giant Koi Havana in at a roadside stop near Malecon, Havana

Boatbuilder Dawn Harbor Giant Koi Havana

by Henrik Schroeder

Deep shadows cloak a boatbuilder resting against the Malecon wall in Havana, where the first light of dawn traces a sharp rim around their silhouette. Tools lie scattered on the rough concrete beside them, their metal surfaces catching faint glimmers of the rising sun. Above, a colossal koi fish hangs motionless in the clear sky, its orange and white scales rendered with photographic precision, suspended like a living parade balloon over the harbor. The turn of seasons brings a cool, crisp clarity to the air, visible in the stillness of the water and the texture of the weathered wood. Foreground bokeh softens the edge of the frame, drawing focus to the human figure and the impossible marine giant above. at the edge is the reflection of the koi's eye shimmering in a puddle of seawater near the builder's boot.
