Authentic quiet documentary nature photograph, vertical 2:3. Looking steeply downward onto a river gravel bed: rounded wet pebbles in warm ochre, cream, grey and slate fill the frame in crisp detail. A thin channel of clear shallow water curves from the lower left up toward the upper right, rippling softly over submerged stones. One bleached, weathered driftwood twig rests across the pebbles in the lower third. Soft overcast diffuse daylight, no harsh shadows, natural colours with a gently warm, archival tone, believable exposure, subtle sensor grain. 50mm lens at f/8, sharp throughout with slight falloff at the top edge. Calm, reflective, observational. No people, no animals, no text, no logos.
