Grooming Van Interior Albuquerque Dusk

Copper-toned light from the setting sun washes over the stainless steel counter inside a grooming van parked in an outdoor boarding run. Rows of folded white towels stack neatly beside chrome dryer holsters strapped securely above the workspace. Circular water tank gauges with red needles reflect the warm glow of firelight, against the cool gray of the drizzle visible through the side window. The metal surfaces gleam with a practical sheen, while raindrops streak the glass, blurring the desert scrub outside. A small puddle forms on the rubber floor mat near the rear door. The gauge needle rests exactly at the forty percent mark.
