Authentic nature photograph, vertical 9:16. A shallow upland river splits into two slim channels around a low gravel island with a few tufts of green grass, the channels curving apart and rejoining further downstream toward a misty, tree-lined valley. Low viewpoint on the riverbank, wet pebbles in sharp focus in the foreground, leading lines of rippled water running up the tall frame. Soft flat overcast daylight, no harsh shadows, muted natural greens, slate greys and pale stone. 35mm lens, moderate depth of field, subtle sensor grain, believable exposure, quiet observational documentary feel. No people, no animals, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
