This overhead shot captures a potter's wheel in action, featuring a partially formed clay vessel, possibly a vase or pot, centered on the wheel head. The light brown clay is wet and smooth, showing distinct horizontal rings from the shaping process. A pool of muddy water surrounds the base of the vessel, indicative of the pottery process. The brown wheel itself has clay residue, and in the background, out of focus, are various tools and a bin of what appears to be discarded clay or slurry. The overall mood is artisanal, focused, and highlights the creative craft of pottery.
