About

A group of women wearing traditional headscarves are seated along a long table, carefully sorting through a large quantity of coffee beans. The scene is set inside a dimly lit industrial warehouse, with stacked sacks visible in the background and two bare lightbulbs hanging overhead to illuminate the workspace. The low-key lighting creates deep shadows while casting a focused glow on the workers' hands and the beans on the table. Photographed by Jake Michaels, the composition captures a quiet, industrious moment in an agricultural setting.
