Rice Paddy Bridge and Frogs in Dominican Orchard

Chaff and dust drift through dappled late-afternoon light filtering over rows of newly planted rice seedlings. A narrow wooden footbridge spans the furrows, connecting sections of the wet field where frogs sit among the water. Nearby, weathered orchard ladders lean against crates stacked in the background, suggesting active harvest or planting work. The cool season air hangs heavy with suspended particles illuminated by the low sun. The bridge planks show grain and wear, resting directly on the muddy banks that hold the water. A reflection of the green shoots breaks the dark surface of the furrow beside the wooden support.
