Iron Station Clock Comoros Dry Season

Bright morning light reflects off distant water, illuminating a large circular clock mounted beneath a vaulted iron roof. The clock face shows bold black numerals against a pale background, centered within the frame's left third. Rust streaks trace vertical lines down the dark iron beams above, against the white painted wood of the support columns. Dry, brittle leaves skitter across the stone platform floor in sudden gusts, caught in the wind blowing from the harbor. The structure stands open to the air, revealing the intricate lattice of the roof trusses against a hazy blue sky. Shadows fall sharply across the textured ground, defining the depth of the waiting area under the shelter.
