Rake Head on Slatted Bench Near Damp Window

Warm candlelight spills across a weathered metal rake head resting on the gray slats of a garden bench. The iron tines show deep scratches and a matte patina from years of repeated use. Behind the bench, glass panes are clouded with thick condensation droplets that blur the faint evening light outside. The room sits on a bedside table near Edinburgh, where the glow of a single candle flickers against the metal, highlighting the texture of rust and wood grain. Condensation beads form heavy tracks down the glass, merging with the dim, orange-hued shadows cast by the rake's shadow. One drop rests on the lower edge of the window frame.
