Authentic wildlife photograph, vertical 9:16, quiet documentary style. A free-living blue whale in open ocean seen from a slightly elevated vantage far off: only its long mottled blue-grey back and tiny dorsal fin break the calm grey sea in the lower third, while a tall, thin, pale blow column rises and drifts softly in the still air. Flat overcast daylight, shadowless, natural muted colours of slate, pewter and soft silver, faint swell ripples. Large empty pale sky in the upper half for title space. Long telephoto lens, compressed perspective, believable exposure, subtle sensor grain, accurate anatomy. No people, no boats, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
