Night Coffee Ceremony in Ethiopian Temple Courtyard
Harsh fluorescent tubes cast a cold, white glow over a stone courtyard near Addis Ababa, illuminating the dry, dusty earth and the backs of three figures seated in a circle. A black clay jebena sits atop a small charcoal brazier, its spout angled toward waiting ceramic cups arranged on a woven mat. The figures wear traditional white shawls that drape heavily over their shoulders, their heads bowed slightly forward in a posture of stillness. Shadows stretch sharply across the rough stone floor, created by the overhead light source rather than the sun. The air appears still and dry, with no dust motes visible, only the stark contrast between the bright illumination and the deep black of the night sky beyond the courtyard walls. One crack in the stone pavement runs near the edge of the woven mat.
