Authentic wildlife documentary photograph, square 1:1. Over-the-shoulder view from low behind the flank and shoulder of a wild bull elk in the near foreground, slightly out of focus, as it wades into a wide cold river. Ahead, a loose line of elk crosses the deep blue-grey water toward a far bank of saffron-gold autumn grass and dark conifers, the line leading toward the upper right. Churning water around their legs, a few ripples breaking. Soft diffuse overcast daylight, heavy grey sky, natural colours, realistic coat texture and accurate anatomy, 300mm telephoto compression, shallow depth of field, subtle sensor grain. Quiet, restless, observational mood. No people, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
