Side view in strict profile of a 37-year-old woman of South Asian descent sitting alone at a table in a closed diner, the lens positioned at a right angle to her figure. She wears a burgundy satin corset and stockings, her warm caramel-brown skin illuminated by the lamp on the side. Her expression is startled, with shoulders jerked up and eyes wide, framed by large loose curls of very long waist-length hair with soft black and brown glints and curtain bangs. She holds a cold coffee cup in one hand, a slice of pie resting on a plate in front of her. A napkin with a ketchup stain lies on the table surface. The neon 'CLOSED' sign outside the window flickers slightly, casting a red glow. Her reflection is visible in the dark window behind her. The main figure is placed off-center on a third of the frame, with the rest showing the empty diner interior. The lamp on the side is turned towards the camera, fully lighting the wide side of her face. Shot on a large-format view camera on a tripod, with everything sharp and lines perfectly straight, capturing the high contrast and deep shadows of the scene.
