A highly detailed still-life photograph of a small, round clay pot positioned on the left side of the frame, showcasing its rustic texture and natural imperfections. The pot has about 20% damage on its brim, revealing uneven edges. Surrounding the pot, several neatly organized stacks of pottery shards of varying sizes, at least 2–3 inches wide, dominate the rest of the frame. The shards exhibit a mix of natural pottery colors, including dark charcoal, earthy brown, and muted gray, creating a visually rich and textured composition. The background is a neutral, matte surface to emphasize the pottery details. Captured with a 50mm lens at f/16 for full depth of field, a shutter speed of 1/100 sec, and ISO 200 under soft, diffused studio lighting to ensure even illumination without harsh shadows.
