A single wasp perches on a wet, mossy boulder in an upland stream, with a wide misty valley softly blurred behind it under overcast light.

Authentic nature photograph, 16:9 wide landscape. A single common wasp stands on the wet, moss-flecked top of a grey boulder in the middle of a shallow upland stream, lowering its head to drink from a bead of water on the stone. The wasp sits in the left third of the frame, sharp, with accurate anatomy, translucent wings and clear yellow and black banding. Behind it, a wide expanse of misty valley, rushing pale water and heather slopes melts into soft out-of-focus distance, giving a sense of scale and daring exposure. Soft diffuse overcast daylight, natural muted greens and greys, believable exposure, subtle sensor grain. 300mm telephoto lens at low eye level, shallow depth of field, quiet documentary treatment. No people, no text, no logos.
