Authentic documentary photograph, 5:4 landscape, natural overcast daylight. A weathered timber tidal sluice gate with two heavy leaves on rusted iron hinges stands in a muddy estuary creek bank, one leaf swung open to reveal a dark gap, the other closed and streaked with green algae and salt stains. Rippled silt, glistening tidal mud, low saltmarsh grasses and a pale pewter river mouth recede to the right beneath a heavy slate-grey sky. Soft diffuse light, natural muted colours, believable exposure, 35mm lens at eye level, moderate depth of field, subtle sensor grain. Quiet, tense, observational. No people, no animals, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
