Chimney Sweep at Leme Harbor

Rich amber sunlight floods the harbor edge at Leme, casting a warm glow on a young chimney sweep standing against the water. Soot blackens his cheeks and neck, contrasting sharply with the copper-toned sky above. He holds a stiff-bristled brush close to his chest, the wood handle worn smooth by grip. Rain-slicked pavement reflects the golden light in scattered patches, while the distant ocean horizon remains perfectly clear. The low angle emphasizes his small stature against the vast sky, highlighting the texture of his damp, dark clothing and the rough bristles of the brush. A drop of water rests on the tip of the bristle, catching the last light before dusk.
