Iced lemonade with a yellow paper cocktail umbrella on a pale outdoor café table, photographed with a long diagonal shadow.
Small 512×640, Medium 960×1200
High-concept editorial photograph, portrait 4:5. One plain clear tumbler of pale lemonade, irregular ice cubes and a lemon slice sits on a matte pale-blue outdoor café table. A small open yellow paper cocktail umbrella leans outward from the rim. Low afternoon sun casts its physically accurate, elongated canopy-and-stick shadow diagonally across the tabletop, comically grand beside the tiny umbrella. Photograph from an elevated three-quarter angle with a 50mm lens; glass in the lower-left portion, shadow extending toward the upper right, generous uncluttered space around both. Keep the umbrella and its shadow clearly distinguishable from the glass shadow. Natural yellow and blue colour, realistic exposure, restrained condensation, slight ordinary wear in the painted table. Tabletop fills the background. Believable optical perspective, no exaggerated shadow scaling, no artificial blur, no added grain or HDR. No people, no text, no logos or watermarks.
