A Glass of Red

Create a high-quality realistic editorial image of a single clear stemmed glass containing red wine, arranged as a restrained beverage still life. COMPOSITION Use a close three-quarter or overhead composition that reveals ingredients and texture. Keep plates, glass rims, and stems geometrically correct and props restrained. Use a 4:5 frame unless the scene benefits from a wide 3:2 composition. Make the subject immediately readable without crowding the edges. LIGHT & COLOR Use large soft side-backlight that reveals fresh texture and glass transparency; keep highlights appetizing and physically plausible. All shadows, reflections, and highlights must agree with the same light sources. DETAIL & FINISH Retain natural material texture and credible depth of field. Render fine details only where the camera would resolve them. Avoid plastic-looking skin, artificial HDR, and excessive sharpening. AVOID No watermarks, brand logos, accidental text, duplicated subjects, extra limbs or fingers, warped objects, inconsistent perspective, or blown-out highlights.
