Sumac and Zaatar Heaps on Copper Tray

Deep red sumac and green-brown za'atar mound in rough, uneven piles atop a hammered copper tray. The metal surface reflects dim window light mixed with warm interior lamps, creating soft highlights along the tray's ridges. Wooden workbench grain runs beneath the copper, showing wear and texture. Early evening shadows stretch across the table, deepening the earthy tones of the spices. Shallow depth of field blurs the background, keeping focus on the coarse spice textures. One grain of sumac rests on the copper rim near the tray's edge.
