Derelict Mill with Yarn on Broken Bobbins

Warm golden light floods a leaf-drying room inside a derelict textile mill in Goa, illuminating rows of mesh trays lined with dried leaves. Broken bobbins sit abandoned on the floor, still wound with strands of yarn that catch the low sun. The symmetrical arrangement of trays creates a rhythmic pattern stretching into the distance. Dust particles float in the angled beams, settling on the rough surfaces of the machinery and the coarse texture of the dried leaves. The cool season air leaves the room quiet, with shadows lengthening across the concrete floor as the day ends. One shard of broken glass near the base of a tray reflects the fading orange glow.
