Moonlit Campfire Ring on Black Water in Galway

Cold moonlight spills across a shallow pool of black water beside a goldsmith's bench in a narrow Galway bazaar lane. A circular stone fire ring sits empty, its rough interior catching faint reflections of the deep night sky. Light drizzle creates a fine mist that softens the edges of the wet cobblestones. The water surface acts as a mirror, doubling the dark silhouette of the ring and the faint glow of distant lanterns. Early winter air leaves a sheen of moisture on the granite rim. Shadows stretch long and hold depth within the ring's center, where cold cosmic distance seems to settle over the quiet street. one drop of rain rests on the stone edge, reflecting the pale light above.
