Retired Welder by Yekaterinburg River with Snow

by Gene Forbes

Late summer snowflakes drift gently around a retired ship welder standing near a riverside landing in Yekaterinburg. The man wears a heavy, dark work jacket that looks worn from decades of use. His arms are exposed, revealing skin marked by clusters of small, pale arc-burn scars that stand out against his complexion. Open shade softens the light on his face, creating a gentle contrast that highlights the deep lines of his expression. Behind him, the river reflects the grey sky, and the distant bank shows hints of green foliage struggling against the unexpected snow. The snowflakes catch the light as they fall, creating a sharp visual contradiction with the late summer season. One flake rests on the collar of his jacket.
