Maple Leaf in Merlot Composition

Maple and Merlot color-led composition sets a confident refined mood. A fabric sweep in oxblood folds across a charcoal backdrop with a single maple leaf in deep crimson placed off-center for scale, surfaces remain matte with subtle sheen only on fold edges. Depth keeps the leaf and nearest fold in crisp focus, background falls to a smooth tonal field for clarity. Light is soft directional with gentle edge definition and controlled specular roll; grading prioritizes crimson and charcoal with rich midtones. Environment is minimal with a clear negative space block for typography. Camera is short-tele at three-quarter angle, tight framing with an open quadrant. Style is still-life editorial with luxurious simplicity. Tags: maple and merlot, oxblood palette, charcoal background, elegant minimal, seasonal color, copy space.
