Fine-art photographic motion sequence, overall 4:5 portrait. Three equally sized horizontal photographs stacked with narrow warm-grey gutters, showing the same staged erosion experiment during one session. Fixed overhead camera, identical framing and scale throughout. A shallow bed of smooth, damp grey-brown clay fills each photograph; tray edges remain outside the crop. A thin stream enters from the upper left, carving one sinuous dark groove toward the lower right. First exposure: a short groove; second: the same groove extends halfway; third: it reaches nearly across the clay bed. Preserve the earlier channel path exactly as it lengthens. Broad quiet surfaces surround the channel, with restrained sediment deposits and a delicate water sheen. Cool, even illumination from an overhead fluorescent office fixture, softened shadows, warm earthy clay. 70mm lens, moderate detail, sharp channel edges without microscopic texture. No people, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
