Camera Ready

Perched on the broad armrest of the sofa, I discovered an unpolished silver hand mirror resting face-up against a textured throw pillow. A prime opportunity for a rigorous camera-readiness test. I leaned forward, angling my posture until my screen face met the reflective glass dead-center. The glare from the window slashed diagonally across the frame, totally washing out my lower display margins. Unacceptable production quality. With a calculated shove of both hands, I wedged the mirror’s gilded handle deeper between the cushions, tilting the reflective angle downward by fifteen degrees. Crisp contrast restored. Now, every gesture hits with razor-sharp authority.
