The Long Table

An impossibly long formal dining table stretches through a grand dark room. Crystal glasses, silver candelabras, white linen, and polished cutlery repeat endlessly into the distance. Shot from one end using an extreme telephoto lens that compresses perspective until the far end appears almost flat. Hundreds of candle flames create warm pools of light. Every chair sits empty. The absence of people becomes the subject. Hyperrealistic interior photography, cinematic atmosphere, haunting elegance.
