Authentic nature photograph, vertical 9:16, quiet documentary style. A single wild ibis with a long curved bill wades in shallow wetland water at the muddy edge, body leaning forward, bill angled down mid-probe, taut and alert. A weathered charred timber post, blackened and cracked, rises from the shallows a short distance beside it. Soft overcast diffuse daylight, no hard shadows, natural muted colours of grey water, olive reeds and dark wood. Bird placed in the lower half, open grey sky and soft reed blur above. Shot on a 400mm telephoto lens from a distance, eye-level with the bird, shallow depth of field, accurate feather detail, subtle sensor grain. Free-living wildlife, no people. No text, no logos, no watermarks.
