Çorum Setsubun Bean Throw Before Dawn

by Jo Horn

Silvery winter light washes over a festival street procession in Çorum as participants prepare for the bean-throwing ceremony. Figures stand in loose rows along the road, their winter coats and head coverings visible against the pale, pre-dawn sky. Loose soybeans scatter across the paved ground, catching the faint morning glow. The street stretches wide and empty on either side, showing the spaciousness of the moment. Shadows are soft and elongated, blending into the cool gray pavement. A cluster of red lanterns hangs from a nearby structure, their fabric dim but distinct against the gray. The air appears clear, allowing distant buildings to remain sharp in the background. at the edge is a single bean resting on the rough edge of a stone curb.
