Quiet documentary wildlife photograph, vertical 4:5. One wild fennec fox pauses behind a low desert dune, only its head, enormous upright ears and a little shoulder visible above the gently diagonal crest. Medium-distance view from sand level; fox small but unmistakable in the lower third, ample dark sky above. Passing storm clouds have softly moonlit edges; the moon remains outside the frame, shining through a break to illuminate pale sandy fur and irregular wind-rippled sand. Realistic nocturnal exposure, subdued sand and slate colours, naturally dark eyes without exaggerated catchlights. Use a real tilt-shift lens with modest tilt: a narrow optical focus plane holds the fox and nearby crest sharp while near sand falls gently out of focus. No simulated miniature effect or artificial blur. Unposed, alert pause, ears providing the quiet humour. No props, people, text, logos or watermarks.
