Rainy Twilight at Pointe-Noire Taxi Rank

Steel-blue twilight washes the wet asphalt of a Pointe-Noire taxi rank, where indigo shadows deepen beneath the glow of yellow headlights. Drizzle falls steadily, turning the road surface into a mirror that stretches reflections into long, shimmering ribbons. The corner cafe looms in the background, its warm interior light spilling onto the pavement to mix with the cool ambient air. Raindrops silver the air, catching the beams of the waiting vehicles. Along the curb, faded paint marks guide toward the glowing lamps. The scene rests on slick, dark stone that reflects the sky above, ending in a sharp line where a puddle catches a broken fragment of red taillight.
