Description

An African American man is seated at a restaurant table. He holds a smartphone in one hand and gazes toward the camera with a slight smile. He wears a patterned short-sleeved button-down shirt. A light-colored jacket rests on the red chair. Other diners sit at tables in the background. The restaurant features white tablecloths and modern decor, including white columns and large windows overlooking greenery. Plants add a touch of nature to the interior. The lighting is soft and diffused. The camera uses a shallow depth of field to blur the background, focusing attention on the man.
