Censer Swings Amid Terraced Brazilian Garden Plots

Bright green terraced garden plots cascade down a Brazilian mountainside under a clear, dry sky. A brass censer hangs from a wooden beam, swinging with momentum through the air. Thick plumes of white frankincense smoke trail behind the swinging vessel, twisting sharply as wind whips across the scene. The metal surface reflects the harsh late morning sun, creating sharp highlights against the matte green leaves of the surrounding crops. Each terrace is bordered by rough-hewn stone walls that hold back the earth. The smoke streaks horizontally, pulled by the gusts, revealing the invisible force of the wind. One strand of smoke curls around the edge of a terracotta pot in the foreground.
