The Old Dog Steps Round a Moved Sofa

An old golden retriever with a grey muzzle steps sideways around a green sofa slid a metre across the floorboards, with clean pale floor lines marking its old place and a rug rolled up beside it in overcast light.

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 overcast light a nine-year-old golden retriever with a deep gold coat, a grey-white muzzle, cloudy brown eyes, one folded ear and a plain brown collar steps sideways out of his usual route across a living room as a green sofa has been slid a metre across the floorboards, clean pale floor lines marking its old place, a rug rolled up beside it, seen from the side at eye level and framed as a medium shot. No people, hands or faces appear anywhere; no readable words, numbers or logos appear and every bag, box and label is blank or plain colour. The dog has natural anatomy with four legs, two ears and one tail, and stays medium-framed.
