Authentic wildlife photograph, vertical 4:5 portrait. A single wild wood mouse stands on a weathered fallen log in damp woodland, forepaws on a scatter of beech mast and seeds, head lifted slightly with a guarded, watchful dark eye, caught mid-forage. Elevated three-quarter viewpoint looking down about 45 degrees along the log, which runs diagonally through the frame. The bark is mottled with organic patches of grey-green lichen, moss and pale weathered wood. Soft overcast diffuse daylight, no hard shadows, natural muted browns and greens. 300mm telephoto lens, shallow depth of field, softly blurred leaf litter background, accurate anatomy, realistic fur and whiskers, subtle sensor grain. Quiet observational documentary feel. No people, no text, no logos, no watermarks.
