Whale Shadow Over Carpentry Bench in San Rafael in inside a taped-off excavation edge in San Rafael

Whale Shadow Over Carpentry Bench in San Rafael

by Christopher Price

Hard coastal glare illuminates a wooden carpentry bench positioned at the edge of a taped-off excavation site in San Rafael during winter. Fine sawdust particles hang suspended in the air, catching the light like suspended gold dust. Dramatic storm clouds fill the sky above. A massive blue whale swims through the atmosphere directly overhead, its translucent blue skin glowing against the gray clouds. The whale casts a distinct, dark shadow that falls across the workbench and the dirt trench below. The shadow outlines the creature's pectoral fin against the rough wood grain. Sawdust motes swirl in the shadow's path, shifting from bright yellow to deep charcoal as they pass over the impossible silhouette. The scene remains sharp and legible despite the impossible subject.
