Tint Timer Clipboard on Salon Counter

Warm candlelight glows across a reception counter in Baqubah, illuminating a clipboard rail holding a tint timer. The steel surface reflects the honeyed evening light, showing streaks of product residue where colors have dried. A sheet of paper rests beneath the timer, its edges crisp against the smooth acrylic. Muted reflections stretch along the floor, mirroring the warm tones of the room. The dry season air leaves the surfaces clear and sharp, highlighting the texture of the paper and the metallic sheen of the rail. Shadows fall softly under the clipboard, at the base of the objects in the space. A small smudge of purple pigment marks the edge of the steel, evidence of recent use.
