Indian Thali Overhead Mosaic

A vibrant top-down food photograph of a complete South Indian thali served on a gleaming stainless-steel round tray. Arranged along the rim in small katori bowls are: a pool of golden dal tadka with a mustard-seed temper floating on top, a dark rich chicken curry, a pale green raita flecked with coriander, a bright orange mango pickle, a serving of green beans poriyal, and a small cup of cardamom kheer. In the center of the tray is a mound of steamed basmati rice, a piece of ghee-glistening chapati folded in a triangle, and three papad wafers propped upright. A banana leaf fragment lines a portion of the tray. Shot directly overhead at 40mm f/5.6. Bright even natural light with no hard shadows. The palette is a jewel-toned mosaic of turmeric gold, scarlet, pale green, ivory white, and the silver gleam of stainless steel.
