Tonal ground

These figures are tonal CSS studies: ivory, soil, and a rare moss wash. They stand in for a forthcoming documentary sequence on thresholds — doorsteps, irrigation lines, linen drying in shade. Nothing here claims to be reportage.

Morning plane. The wash suggests depth without inventing a place.

Closing frame. Leave the caption shorter than the silence after it.

When documentary photographs replace these washes, captions will name place, season, and maker. Until then, the page keeps its honesty: tonal, not photographic.
