Spice Trader Turmeric Fingers Berlin Twilight

Deep shadow consumes most of the face, leaving only a sharp rim of cool blue twilight light outlining the profile against the dark. The hands rest forward, stained a vivid, dusty orange from turmeric powder that clings to deep wrinkles and calloused knuckles. Late summer leaves skitter across the blurred background, caught in a sudden gust. The subject wears a dark, textured coat that absorbs the fading light. One, bright fleck of turmeric dust rests on the rough skin of the thumb, catching the last ambient glow.
