Gegenschein Glow on Cafe Table

Rich amber light from a low sun floods a wooden cafe table near a Casablanca window. Directly above the surface, a faint, pale oval of gegenschein glow floats in the dark sky visible through the glass. Dust motes hang suspended in thick shafts of golden light that cut across the table. A ceramic cup sits near the edge, its rim catching the warm glow. The wood grain shows deep scratches and wear. Salt air freshness lingers in the open space. A small pile of sand rests near the cup base, shifting slightly in the breeze. The contrast between the dark sky and the bright table creates a sharp visual boundary.
