Fossil Jacket on Mule at Jeddah Field Station
by Kate Adams
Flat noon light reflects intensely off a nearby water surface, illuminating a plaster jacket strapped to a mule standing on dusty ground. The heavy white casing, marked with faint tool scratches, contrasts against the mule's weathered brown coat and the coarse texture of the saddle blankets. Behind the animal, the metal frame of a weather balloon launch site rises against a pale sky, its converging support lines drawing toward a distant vanishing point. Salt wind ripples the fabric of a nearby tarp, pushing it taut across exposed equipment. The scene shows a moment of disciplined preparation in a coastal desert environment, where the cool season air keeps the dust settled on the hard-packed earth. A thin shadow falls directly beneath the mule's hooves, at the base of the animal firmly on the sun-baked surface.
