Authentic nature photograph, vertical 9:16. A single thistle seed head on a slender upright stem in a damp wild meadow, its silky white pappus puffed into a lopsided, tousled tuft with a few strands springing out sideways and two seeds drifting free, a gently comical bed-head look. Photographed from slightly below at close range with a 100mm macro lens, shallow depth of field, soft out-of-focus green and straw-coloured grasses behind, tiny dew beads on the down. Soft flat overcast daylight, natural colours, believable exposure, subtle sensor grain. Seed head placed in the lower-middle of the frame with calm, empty muted background above. Quiet observational documentary feel. No people, no props, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
