Lilac Between Touch-Ups
A lilac nail-polish brush rests diagonally on an outdoor wooden table, with wet bristles beside a small lacquer crescent and soft leaf shadows.

Candid editorial photograph, 4:5 portrait, close overhead view of a nail-polish brush briefly set down during an outdoor manicure. Its plain ivory cap lies on its side near the upper-right edge; the short stem points diagonally toward the centre, where slightly spread bristles touch a small crescent smear of wet lilac lacquer on a faded wooden garden table. Focus on the brush tip, the glossy pigment ridge and its tiny sunlit highlight. Enough surrounding tabletop to give the detail breathing room; no other manicure tools. Real afternoon sunlight, soft leaf shadows across the upper background, natural pale wood and lilac colours, realistic exposure. Close-focus photographic technique with a mostly sharp tabletop and gentle optical falloff. A faint warm film-edge fog touches only the left border, without added grain or distressed texture. No people, no text, no logos or watermarks.
