Milking Line After Rain in Bangladesh Tea Slope

Darkened earth stretches across a freshly irrigated slope in Bangladesh, marked by deep, water-filled ruts left by a passing milking line. The dry season air contrasts with the wet tracks that reflect the late-afternoon sun. Rows of tea plants line the hillside, their green leaves glistening with residual moisture. The soil appears heavy and saturated, turning a rich, dark brown where the machinery rolled. Sunlight breaks through the clearing sky, casting long shadows across the uneven ground. Puddles in the ruts mirror the pale blue sky above. One tire track cuts a straight path through the mud, ending abruptly near the base of the hill.
