Farmhands Loading Pumpkins At Dawn In Can Tho

Mist hangs low over freshly irrigated rows where orange pumpkins rest on wet earth. Farmhands in practical workwear lift heavy gourds into the bed of a waiting trailer. Water droplets rest on the rough, bumpy skin of the vegetables and glisten on the dark soil. The sky holds a pale, diffuse glow that softens shadows and turns the humid air into a visible haze. Hands grip the sturdy handles of the pumpkins with steady, rhythmic motion. In the background, green vines stretch along the damp ground, reflecting the early morning light. The metal side of the trailer gleams faintly against the muted greens and oranges.
