A real photograph in the observational documentary genre, captured on 35mm film with a 35mm lens at f/5.6 for generous depth of field and open visible grain. A single soft overcast daylight key from high front falls evenly across surfaces with loose open shading gathering lightly under ledges and folds, finished in a plain desaturated grade with honest midtone contrast and unpolished texture. Wide 16:9 frame. In bright light a tall soft-built man in his late twenties with round glasses, short curly hair, a moustache and chin beard and headphones round his neck stacks sofa cushions into a low wall at the edge of the rug and a long loop of string marks a winding route around plain round stones set out like stepping marks, he crouches to place one final stone with a careful hand and a look of satisfaction, seen from the side at eye level and framed full length. His hand places the stone, exactly five digits visible or anatomically accounted for on each hand. The second player wears a green t-shirt with headphones round his neck. No readable words, numbers, logos or brand marks appear on any box, paper, tag, cushion or bucket; boxes, papers and tags are blank or plain colour, and no children appear. The room is a bright flat living room with a patterned rug, a mustard sofa with plain cushions and a low wooden table.
