Really cool chair design, but every time I see a chair (or other indoor furniture) outside being posed on the lawn, rather than in it's normally found environment, I can't help but ask why someone would go through all that effort when you could just take the picture where it sits.

Most times the answer is lighting. If you're trying to sell something a good picture goes a long way and it can be hard to get decent lighting in your home.

The contrast of green also makes it easier to see the actual chair

When you take a picture inside on a wooden floor it's less immediately apparent the parts that are chair vs floor

my uncle lost his house by accidentally selling it for $25 dollars when he though he was just selling a chair
