Description

A young child stands at a kitchen counter, holding a small knife and looking down at halved fruit on the surface. The child wears a white long-sleeved top with small green motifs and light-colored trousers. The background features warm-toned wooden cabinetry and paneling typical of a domestic kitchen. Natural light illuminates the scene from the side, casting soft shadows and highlighting the texture of the wooden surfaces and the child's fair hair. The composition is captured with a shallow depth of field, keeping the child sharply in focus while the foreground edge of the counter is softly blurred. This portrait was photographed by Sacha Stejko in Auckland.
