Neon Shadows on Wet Jamalpur Street

Crimson and electric blue light spill across the slick asphalt of a narrow market street in Jamalpur. The pavement glistens under low-hanging winter clouds, reflecting the fragmented glow of hanging shop signs that line the alley. Distant town lights fade into a soft horizon glow, against the sharp, saturated colors of the foreground signage. Water droplets rest on the edges of plastic awnings, catching the colored beams. The wet ground mirrors the vertical lines of the signs, stretching the red and blue hues into long, distorted ribbons. A faint haze hangs low, softening the edges of the illuminated letters while the dark shadows between the stalls remain deep and cool.
