Scaffold Plank Rack Muddy Road Puente Alto

Rust-streaked steel rails of a scaffold plank rack stand firmly on a churned dirt track near Puente Alto. The ground is thick with wet, brown mud that rests on the heavy wheels, marking the path of early afternoon work. Pools of standing water reflect the pale sky, casting a cool, diffuse light across the sharp, angular edges of the steel beams. Late spring fog settles low in the depressions of the road, softening the distant horizon while leaving the foreground textures crisp. The rack holds empty slots, waiting for the heavy timber that will soon be loaded. A thin layer of water ripples gently around the tires, mirroring the gray metal against the dark earth.
