Authentic nature photograph, vertical 2:3, quiet documentary style. Low camera angle over a river gravel bed: wet rounded pebbles in grey, ochre, slate and cream fill the foreground in sharp detail. A clear shallow channel of water runs diagonally up through the frame, rippling softly over submerged gravel, widening toward a gentle bend where the light is slightly brighter. Faint green alder and willow bank softly blurred in the far distance. Soft overcast diffuse daylight, no harsh shadows, natural colours, believable exposure, subtle sensor grain. 35mm lens at f/8, deep depth of field with a gentle falloff in the far distance. Calm, observational, quietly hopeful. No people, no animals, no props, no text, no logos.
