Sawmill Blade Cuts Log in Indigo Twilight

by Briana Stanley

Indigo shadows swallow the rail yard near Nkongsamba while a sharp rim light traces the edge of a massive saw blade. The steel tooth bites into a fresh log, sending a dense cloud of pale sawdust exploding outward. Dry season dust hangs in the air, catching the faint ambient glow. The rail tracks run diagonally beneath the machinery, at the base of the heavy steel structure in the earth. A Dutch tilt angles the entire frame, making the spinning blade appear to lean precariously against the dark sky. Fine wood particles scatter across the wet metal surface, creating a textured layer of grit that contrasts with the smooth, dark log bark. The light ends on a single, glowing fleck of dust suspended in the shadow.
