Night Tea Picker in Galway Lighthouse Beam

Rotating white light slices through the dark village lane near Galway, illuminating wet cobblestones that glisten with recent rain. A figure stands at the edge of the frame, wearing a heavy dark coat and a wide-brimmed hat that throws a deep shadow across the face. Rough stone walls of a cottage fade into the blackness behind the subject. The beam sweeps across the ground, revealing the texture of the wet pavement and the fiber of the heavy clothing. Droplets hang from the hem of the coat and the rough weave of a woven basket resting against the figure's side. A drop of water slides down the brim of the hat.
