Midnight Sugar Bowl on Oak Table

Soft tungsten light pools over the grain of an oak breakfast table, casting deep shadows against the surrounding walls. A ceramic sugar bowl sits centered in the frame, its white surface catching the warm glow. Scattered crumbs and a dusting of flour rest on the wood, marking recent use. The early winter darkness presses against the edges of the room, visible only as the quiet absence of daylight. Shadows stretch long along the base of the dresser in Glasgow, at the base of the stillness of the scene. One crumb rests near the bowl's rim, catching the light.
