Silhouetted Hog Pen Corridor Niger Evening

Dim blue evening light falls through high windows, casting the hog pen corridor into deep shadow. Red feed bins line the walls, their curved metal surfaces catching faint glints from overhead fluorescent lamps. The concrete floor shows scuff marks and damp patches from daily use. Dust motes float in the narrow beams of interior light, settling on the rough texture of the pen bars. The animals stand motionless, their dark forms blending with the shadows of the milking parlor structure. Soft reflections shimmer on the smooth edges of the feeders where the cool season air meets the warm artificial glow. One red bin edge glows against the fading blue sky outside.
