Authentic wildlife photograph, landscape 4:3. A single wild common nightingale, warm russet-brown plumage, paler throat, perched on a decomposing, moss-covered fallen branch with crumbling bark and small bracket fungi, low in the lower third of the frame, seen in side profile with beak slightly lifted as if about to sing. Soft diffuse overcast daylight, natural muted colour, believable exposure, accurate feather detail. Shot from a respectful distance with a 400mm telephoto lens, shallow depth of field, out-of-focus hazel and bramble softly melting into mist behind. The upper half of the frame is calm, pale, empty grey-white sky for copy space. Subtle sensor grain, quiet documentary feel. No people, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
