Tatting Shuttle Floating With Tropical Fish

Pale morning light floods a wooden workbench in Eldoret, illuminating a wooden tatting shuttle resting on a cutting table. Loose thread fibers float in the air like dust, catching the glow from the clear window. Against the backdrop of pale walls, a school of vibrant tropical fish swims horizontally through the empty space at head height. Their translucent scales reflect the soft light, creating tiny rainbow glints on the wood grain beside them. The shuttle remains stationary while the fish drift past its carved notches, their fins disturbing the still air without rippling the thread. A sharp shadow of the shuttle falls across the table, anchoring the impossible school of fish to the solid surface.
