A photograph of a modern municipal wastewater treatment plant headworks bathed in the soft light of early morning. The massive concrete headworks structure dominates the frame, with cascading water visibly flowing over the screens and into the treatment basins. A lone worker in a bright yellow safety vest and hard hat stands near the edge of the channel, inspecting the equipment; a sign reads “"Please Keep Clear"”. The background features a clear blue sky and distant trees, creating a contrast between the industrial structure and the natural environment.
