Authentic documentary nature photograph, vertical 3:4, soft overcast daylight. A single young fern fiddlehead, tightly coiled and fresh green with fine pale brown scales, rises from a damp woodland floor of dark moss and fallen copper beech leaves. Seen from low, close to ground level, its curl sits slightly off-centre in the upper half, with a second, smaller coil softly blurred behind. Background melts into pale grey-green mist and distant tree trunks. Natural colours, believable exposure, diffuse shadowless light, dew beads on the stem. 90mm macro lens, shallow depth of field, subtle sensor texture. Hushed, solemn, still. No people, no animals, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
