Geologist Rinsing Red Sandstone Cores Midnight Haiti

by Dan Holt

Deep shadow swallows the foreground while a sharp rim light outlines the edge of a weather balloon housing. Cold metal surfaces gleam with condensation beads, catching the faint glow against the dark night. A geologist stands beside a small stream, hands submerged in water to rinse a cylindrical red sandstone core. The stone's rough, layered texture contrasts with the smooth, wet rock face of the outcrop nearby. The scene remains still under the midnight sky, with water rippling gently over the red grains. Droplets rest on the metal casing, reflecting the pale ambient light. The red sandstone rests in the palm, wet and heavy, its striations visible in the low light.
