Woman Haggling Fabric Price in West African Market Evening

by Franklin Bernard

Deep shadows engulf the market stall where a woman negotiates the price of folded bolts of colorful textile. A sharp rim light traces the curve of her head and the edge of the vibrant fabric, separating her form from the dark background. Fine dust particles hang suspended in the low evening air, catching the last rays of sunlight that filter through the open sides of the structure. The cool season air is visible in the stillness of the dust motes drifting just above the packed earth floor. Wooden beams create strong leading lines that draw toward her focused expression and the intricate patterns of the cloth she holds. Her hands gesture sharply against the dark interior, showing the intensity of the exchange. at the edge is the bright orange thread on the fabric catching the light.
