The image presents a still life of scattered bullet casings resting on a rich, dark red leather-bound notebook. The casings vary in finish—some polished brass, others matte or oxidized metal—showing signs of wear and use. A few lie upright, others toppled, creating a casual, almost accidental arrangement. The notebook’s textured cover contrasts with the smooth, cylindrical forms of the casings. A thin, yellowish cord lies loosely beside them, adding a subtle, almost forgotten detail. The lighting is soft, casting gentle shadows that emphasize the contours and surfaces. The overall mood is quiet, contemplative, juxtaposing the permanence of the notebook with the transient nature of the casings. The scene feels grounded, intimate, and deliberately composed.
