Sunlit Coffee Harvest in Xicotepec, Puebla

Ultra-detailed, cinematic photograph of a local coffee farmer harvesting beans in Xicotepec, Puebla, Mexico. The farmer kneels among rows of glossy coffee bushes, plucking ripe red cherries and placing them into a woven basket at the waist. Warm sunlight bathes the scene in golden tones, casting soft long shadows over the green leaves, dew on the foliage, and terraced hills in the distance. The farmer wears a wide-brim hat, a light cotton shirt, sturdy pants, and leather sandals. In the foreground, rustic wooden crates and sacks of freshly picked beans rest beside a dirt path. The atmosphere conveys quiet concentration, traditional rural life, and tactile textures—the beans, baskets, and leaves—captured in a realistic, documentary style with shallow depth of field focusing on the hands and cherries.
