Description

This food and dining photograph by Alex Lau captures a lively indoor table setting loaded with shared Korean dishes. A person wearing a white jacket is shown eating while holding a smartphone in the other hand. The tabletop is covered with large plates of reddish tteokbokki garnished with green herbs, a plate of golden fried chicken, various side dishes, a glass of beer, and a bottle. The composition is illuminated by direct flash lighting, creating high contrast and highlighting the textures of the food and tableware.
