Satellite Graveyard in the Desert

Aerial crane descending over a desert satellite-dish graveyard, 18mm lens, hundreds of rusted white dishes tilting toward a bleached sky like a fallen constellation. A lone salvage worker walks between them in a wide-brim hat, boots kicking up alkali dust, heat shimmer distorting his silhouette. Harsh midday sunlight, high contrast, cinematic documentary composition, slow orbital drone movement emphasizing scale and isolation. Close cut to his calloused hand brushing corrosion from an obsolete receiver, then back out as wind moans through metal joints, turning technological decay into a quiet monument to forgotten broadcasts.
