Description

A single textured green falafel ball with a crisp brown crust is skewered on the tines of a white plastic fork. The falafel shows an interior of crushed chickpeas and green herbs with a slight bite taken from the top edge. The subject is centered in a vertical composition against a smooth gradient background that shifts from bright orange at the top to a deeper reddish-orange at the base. Crisp directional lighting casts sharp shadows beneath the fork tines, highlighting the granular texture of the fried food.
