Softbox, Hard Light
A long, narrow softbox hangs above a pale newsroom photo desk, crossed below by a sharp diagonal band of daylight.

Real editorial studio photograph, 3:2 landscape. In a newsroom's compact product-photography bay, one long rectangular strip softbox hangs horizontally from a boom above an empty pale-grey laminate desk. View almost straight onto its white diffusion face, slightly from below; the softbox occupies the upper middle, its black fabric rim clearly defining the elongated rectangle. A short section of boom and mounting bracket enters from the right. The softbox is switched off. Strong daylight through an open doorway outside the frame casts a sharp diagonal shaft across the tabletop beneath it, opposing the horizontal equipment. Broad white-wall bounce keeps the scene high key with readable shadows and no clipped diffuser highlights. Plain off-white wall, generous breathing room, subtle fabric seams and ordinary laminate texture. Natural neutral colour, realistic exposure, 50mm lens, moderate depth of field. No people, no text, no logos or watermarks.
