A clear straight-sided glass of amber iced tea with ice sits on a cool-grey surface, lit warmly from the left and casting a long soft shadow; broad empty space…

Candid editorial object portrait, studio photography, vertical 4:5. One ordinary straight-sided drinking glass, two-thirds full of amber iced tea with three uneven, partially melted ice cubes, rests near the lower-right of a matte cool-grey seamless paper sweep. No garnish or straw. Photograph from just above rim height with a normal 50mm lens; show the elliptical surface and clear glass base. Low sunset entering a studio window, softened by atmospheric haze outside, illuminates the tea from the left and creates a muted amber patch beside its long soft shadow. Sparse, irregular condensation, a small natural wet crescent at the base. Casual rather than catalogue-perfect placement. Plenty of empty grey space above and left. Realistic exposure, natural amber and grey colours, sufficient depth of field to keep the whole glass clear. Quiet, slightly wistful, not theatrical. No people, visible smoke, manufactured dirt, added grain, text, logos or watermarks.
