Hyperrealistic quiet documentary photograph, portrait 4:5. One dried botanical stem rests diagonally on an unmarked warm-white archival board on a low conservation table. Close, slightly oblique overhead view; the stem fills two-thirds of the frame, with generous empty board around it. At one node, a partial longitudinal split exposes pale woody fibres while the stem remains connected; curled brown epidermis and faint old mounting-adhesive residue show its unrestored condition. No repairs, bindings or tools. Soft window daylight from the left, with subtle warm light reflected upward from an oak floor, opening the shadow side without an orange cast. A narrow glimpse beyond the board establishes the real tabletop. 90mm macro lens, moderate depth of field, damaged node sharply resolved and distant stem tip gently softer. Accurate dry plant anatomy, restrained colour grading, controlled highlights, no excessive sharpening. No people, text, logos or watermarks.
