Good Morning, Perfect Pancake is a photographic composition that elevates breakfast to a study in geometry and coloring. Centered in a stovetop skillet, the pancake is a marvel of uniformity—its circular edges clean, its surface smooth, and its color a dreamlike golden brown. The metallic grey of the pan frames the pancake like a matte border, giving the scene the air of precision and care.

The image flirts with the surreal through its unnatural yet strangely appealing palette, challenging expectations of what food “should” look like. It is a meditation on intentionality, craft, and the quiet art of making something simple—perfect.
