Candid editorial photograph with the faithful clarity of a museum object study, 3:2 landscape. Straight overhead view of a homemade family tic-tac-toe board: a small rectangle of plain brown cardboard with four slightly uneven pencil lines forming nine squares. Three acorns and two intact paired maple seeds occupy separate squares in an unfinished game; the paired seed wings subtly resemble satellite panels. Pieces lie at naturally different angles, exactly where play stopped. Board slightly left of centre on an ordinary pale wooden kitchen table, generous bare tabletop to the right. Soft diffused morning window light, gentle short shadows, natural tan and brown colours. Show believable cardboard fibres and delicate seed wings without exaggerated microdetail. Everything in clear focus, neutral exposure, no artificial blur or added distressing. No people, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
