Shoring Tab Binder Under Crane at Dawn

Soft gray predawn light washes over an open construction site in Ibadan, where a thick inspection binder rests on wet, raw earth beneath a towering crane. Sodium spill from a nearby light lingers as a yellowish haze on the ground, against the damp steel and ropes coiled nearby. Laminated permits and tags hang from the binder, their text sharp and readable against the overcast sky. Spray paint marks the steel surfaces, adding streaks of red and blue to the muted palette. Converging lines of the crane legs guide toward a vanishing point in the distance. The wet ground reflects the pale sky, showing the urgency of the site's early morning readiness.
