Gauge Stakes in Still Water
Weathered wooden gauge stakes standing in a calm wetland pool among reeds under flat grey light, tall portrait format.
Small 256×640, Medium 480×1200
Authentic documentary nature photograph, tall vertical 2:5 portrait. A small group of weathered wooden gauge stakes with faint tide-stained waterline bands, no numbers or writing, stands in a still wetland pool, rooted in dark mud, with reeds and sedge clumps around their bases. The calm water mirrors a pale grey sky. Foreground reeds sit slightly soft, stakes in crisp focus at the middle distance, empty sky above. Soft overcast daylight, natural muted greens, ochre and slate, believable exposure, 50mm lens, f/5.6, subtle sensor grain. Quiet observational mood. No people, no animals, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
