Dawn Fruit Stacks in Asuncion Bazaar

by Alexandria McConnell

Deep shadows pool across the stone floor of a covered bazaar aisle in Asuncion while pale dawn light carves thin, bright edges along the top of stacked citrus pyramids. The vendor, wearing a simple cotton shirt, lifts heavy oranges with both hands, arranging them into a precarious, colorful tower. Fine spice dust hangs suspended in the still, humid air beneath the corrugated tarps, catching the faint rim light that separates the dark foreground from the bright morning sky. Wooden crates lined with woven mats hold piles of bananas and green plantains beside the fruit display. The rough texture of the vendor's hands contrasts with the smooth, waxy skin of the oranges. One orange rolls slightly on the edge of the top tier, held only by friction.
