Hand-carved Wooden Duck on Marsh Hunter Shelf in in a village lane near Barinas

Hand-carved Wooden Duck on Marsh Hunter Shelf

by Donna Booth

Silvery winter light spills over a rough wooden shelf mounted in a narrow village lane near Barinas. A hand-carved wooden decoy duck rests prominently in the center, its grain polished smooth by years of handling while the surrounding wood retains a weathered, matte texture. The carving features detailed feathers etched into the soft timber, catching the cool glow of the night. Fine mist hangs in the air, visible as a soft haze that blurs the background into indistinct shapes of stone and foliage. In the immediate foreground, out-of-focus leaves create a frame of soft green and grey circles. The duck sits still against the dark backdrop, its natural brown tones standing out sharply against the cold, monochromatic environment.
