Authentic wildlife photograph, vertical 9:16 frame. A single grey heron stands hunched on a mossy wet stone in a slow woodland stream, seen from slightly above and behind at three-quarter angle, neck drawn into its shoulders, dagger bill resting low, grey-blue back feathers beaded with raindrops. Fine rain rings dimple the dark tea-coloured water. Ferns and wet alder trunks fade into soft green-grey haze above. Flat overcast diffuse daylight, no hard shadows, natural muted greens and silvery greys. 400mm telephoto lens, shallow depth of field, heron sharp, believable exposure, subtle sensor grain, accurate anatomy and feather detail. Quiet observational documentary mood. No people, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
