Square editorial photograph, an intimate object portrait in natural open shade. A burgundy cotton shirt lies casually on a windowsill outside direct sunlight; crop tightly enough that only its folded cuff fills the frame. One crimson buttonhole runs diagonally just below center, its dense stitched border and narrow dark opening sharply resolved. A softly raised cuff edge creates a broad triangular shadow, leaving a quiet expanse of red fabric above. Close oblique viewpoint, 90mm macro lens, moderate depth of field with the whole buttonhole in focus. Soft available daylight with cool, restrained highlights, realistic exposure, crimson-to-burgundy tonal palette. Preserve slight fabric puckering and irregular thread tension without exaggerated texture. No hands, people, added props, artificial grain, text, logos or watermarks.
