Predawn Scaffolding Beside Steel Mecca

by Carlos Hatch

Rain-slicked scaffolding tubes rise against the dark facade of a building under construction near Mecca. The metal framework leans into a sharp Dutch angle, creating a jagged diagonal across the frame. Beside the structure, exposed structural steel gleams with a cold, silvery sheen from the winter predawn light. Heavy, dramatic clouds dominate the sky, their undersides bruised gray and deep charcoal. Water droplets rest on the rusted joints and horizontal planks, reflecting the faint ambient glow. The wet ground below mirrors the vertical lines of the scaffolding, blurring the boundary between the construction site and the shadowed earth. One bolt head catches the dim light, marking the labor-hardened reality of the site.
