Stone Cairn At Nautical Dawn Near Thimphu

by Robert Robbins

Cold silver light washes over a stacked stone cairn perched at the tree line near Thimphu. Gray and tan rocks balance in a rough pyramid against a sky heavy with dramatic, swirling clouds. The ground beneath shows patches of early spring snow and sparse, frost-dried grass. Soft shadows stretch across the uneven terrain, leading toward the stone structure. The air remains still, captured in the sharp clarity of the dawn. A small blue prayer flag hangs from the top stone, its edge catching the pale light.
