Work Through the Handle
An off-white coffee mug on a pale desk, photographed low enough that its handle frames a small portion of an unattended keyboard.
Small 640×427, Medium 1200×800
Real-life editorial still-life photograph, 3:2 landscape. An ordinary off-white ceramic coffee mug sits on a pale stone-grey laminate work desk, left of centre, its handle pointing right. Photograph from just above desktop height at a slight downward angle: a narrow ellipse of dark coffee is visible, and the handle opening naturally frames a small section of the keyboard farther back. Find this alignment through camera position, not elaborate styling. Keyboard keys have no visible legends and remain recognizable but gently out of focus. Soft daylight from a window behind and to the side traces the mug rim and handle, with gentle front fill from the room. Cool, fresh light after rain, natural ceramic glaze variation, realistic exposure. Open desk space on the right; close, graphic crop without other props or people. Moderate depth of field, no artificial blur, HDR or added grain. No text, logos or watermarks.
