Spires Of Evening

About this piece

A cylindrical white windmill rises above coastal buildings, its uncovered spokes traced against a luminous orange sky. Golden light spreads across the sea, while the foreground walls and vegetation deepen into shadow. The open horizon balances the clustered architecture, lending the scene a quiet sense of breadth.

The story

Late July gathers into an amber evening, with the sea holding the sky’s last brilliance. The windmill’s bare framework draws fine lines through the glow, its pale tower already shaded. A small light shines above the doorway; another glimmers beside the neighboring windows. Beyond the low walls and tangled greenery, the horizon remains open, a long line between water and fading light.
