Authentic documentary landscape photograph, 16:9 wide. A disconnected oxbow lake curves as a pewter crescent through a flat river floodplain, seen from a slightly raised bank at a gentle angle. The water is mirror-still, reflecting a uniform pale grey sky. Reed beds, silted mud edges and a line of willows and alders along the old meander. Rough wet meadow grass in the foreground, a faint distant tree line on the horizon. Soft diffuse overcast light, cool muted green and grey palette, natural colours, believable exposure, subtle sensor grain. 35mm lens, deep depth of field, quiet and detached mood. No people, no animals, no buildings, no text, no logos.
