Authentic quiet documentary wildlife photograph, vertical 3:4. A single wild leopard crouches low on a wet, dark boulder-strewn river bank in African woodland, shoulders hunched, ears flattened, gaze fixed across the water as a strong gust ruffles its fur and bends tall grass around it. Shot from a respectful distance at slightly low angle, leopard in the lower half, heavy slate-grey clouds and a dim tree line behind, a little room above. Soft diffuse overcast light, no hard shadows, natural muted colours of ochre, charcoal and olive, accurate anatomy, realistic rosette fur with damp texture, 400mm telephoto, shallow depth of field, subtle sensor grain. Tense, turbulent atmosphere. No people, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
