Authentic nature photograph, 3:2 landscape, quiet documentary style. Extreme macro view at ground level of a tiny erosion channel, a finger-wide rill winding diagonally through damp pale ochre sandy clay on a coastal bank, with crumbling miniature cliffs, small slumped banks, fine sand grains and a few pebbles like boulders. A thin thread of water glints faintly in the channel. Camera very low, looking along the rill so it recedes like a vast canyon, sharp focus on a mid-section, soft natural falloff into foreground and distance. Flat soft overcast daylight, natural muted earth tones, believable exposure, subtle sensor grain. No people, no animals, no props, no text, no logos.
