Real-life editorial ingredient photograph, 4:5 portrait, outdoors under open sky. A shallow, plain reddish-brown earthenware bowl filled with dry green lentils sits toward the lower right of a pale concrete patio table. View from slightly off overhead, close enough to recognize the lentils but not macro. A nearby wall casts a broad diagonal shadow across the table; a narrow patch of direct afternoon sun catches most of the lentils and part of the bowl rim. Cool natural skylight keeps the shaded areas visible. Irregular olive, brown and muted green lentils, matte clay, believable surface variation. Strong graphic light boundary, generous empty shaded tabletop above. An everyday detail noticed in passing, not an arranged food campaign. Realistic exposure, natural colour, moderate depth of field, no artificial blur or added grain. No people, text, logos or watermarks.
