Main Object — Fruit Description:
• The fruit is rounded but slightly irregular, about the size of a cantaloupe
• Its surface is deep purple with raised spiral ridges, resembling hardened rubber or a mutated fig
• The spirals appear like natural growths, not painted — slightly glossy but with matte gaps between ridges
• A single, golden-yellow curled stem protrudes from the top — dry at the base, curling upward like antique vinewood
• The fruit surface has subtle bruising and imperfections, adding realism
Chest Description:
• A weathered wooden treasure chest, made of dark planks with metal corner brackets and a dull brass lock
• Interior is lined with faded red velvet, torn and dusted in places
• The lid is open halfway, revealing the fruit nestled neatly in the padding
• A few old nails are visible along the rim
• The inside wood grain is scratched and uneven — aged but not damaged
Scene Composition:
• Shot from a slightly top-down angle, showing the entire chest interior clearly while highlighting the fruit’s stem and spiral top
• Soft natural lighting from the left — mimicking sunlight through a tent or ruined roof
• Light catches the metal latch and highlights the curves on the fruit
• Background is blurred — wooden planks, a cloth, or dirt floor visible behind
Lighting & Tone:
• Warm ambient light with gentle shadows inside the chest
• Slight dust particles in the light beam
• Realistic color palette: dark purples, aged brown wood, pale brass — nothing glowing or magical
• Texture-first: every surface should have real depth and material logic
Camera Specs:
• Shot on Sony A7R IV, 50mm macro lens
• ISO 200 • f/4 • 1/125s
• Slightly shallow depth of field to bring focus to the fruit’s stem and ridges, with blurred rear chest wall
