Black and white film photo of a kitchen table with a square-pattern cover. On the table a few items are visible: a Minolta XG-2 film SLR with a 50mm lens, a CPL filter, a Zippo-style lighter, and a lens cover. On the upper part of the photo, a closed Lenovo ThinkPad laptop is partly visible, as are a pair of glasses on the right. There are also scrap pieces of paper on the table, old sheets from a calendar, reading "Gennaio 2026"/"January 2026". In the upper left corner part of a chair is visible.
