Benedict Morgan, Photographer, London

About

This still life photograph by Benedict Morgan presents a carefully composed arrangement against a dark background. A clear glass filled with liquid holds a distinct apple shape, creating a visual refraction effect. Positioned directly behind the glass is a whole lemon attached to a branch bearing vibrant green leaves. The lighting is low-key and directional, casting soft shadows and highlighting the natural textures of the fruit and foliage. The warm, moody color grading emphasizes the rich tones of the subject matter.
