Moonlit Pier with Sleeping Gulls in Niger in from a quiet alpine saddle in Niger

Moonlit Pier with Sleeping Gulls in Niger

by Madelyn Everett

Deep shadow swallows the fishing pier extending into predawn darkness while rim light traces the edges of wooden railings. Several gulls rest against the wood, heads tucked into feathers. Ground fog pools in the low spaces beneath the structure, obscuring the water's surface. The setting rests within a quiet alpine saddle in Niger during the wet season, where damp ground absorbs the cool air. Warm firelight glows from a small source nearby, casting a soft orange hue against the cool blue tones of the night. The intimate warmth sits beside the surrounding darkness, highlighting the texture of the wood and the stillness of the birds. One gull shifts slightly, its wing feather catching the faint glow.
