Rain on Overpass Railing Above Glowing Diyarbakir

Cool midsummer rain coats the metal railing of an overpass in sharp, glistening droplets that slide down the vertical bars. Behind the wet iron, the city of Diyarbakir glows with the warm, yellow-white spill of a nearby convenience store's fluorescent lights. The sky above has cooled to a deep, twilight blue, against the artificial warmth below. Heat shimmer waves visibly across the dark asphalt in the distance, blurring the outlines of parked cars and distant buildings. Water beads form on the rough, painted surface of the railing, catching the store's light in tiny, bright highlights. The view looks down from the bridge onto the damp, reflective street where the glow of the shop sign illuminates the wet pavement.
