Wetland Pulse

A winding channel of teal water carves through golden marsh from foreground to horizon, each bend revealing a new micro-ecosystem. Cattails rise on the left bank, their golden plumes catching light. Lily pads cluster in the still water near the bends — orange blooms opening flat against the surface. Fish dart through the deeper channels as birds wheel overhead. The whole composition moves: water flowing, plants growing, life cycling. A wetland in cross-section, rendered as if you could see every living thing at once — the pulse of an ecosystem laid bare.
