Monochrome Stork Pair on a German Nest

A black-and-white, photorealistic image of a pair of white storks perched on their large twig nest atop a tall wooden pole in the German countryside. The scene is captured in high-contrast grayscale with subtle film grain to evoke vintage 35mm documentary photography. One stork stands tall with its neck arched, the other sits beside on the nest, their long legs and slender beaks clearly visible. The nest sits against a moody rural landscape: distant fields, a soft line of trees, and a small German village with a church steeple on the horizon. Foreground shows reeds or marsh grasses, while the background is softly blurred to emphasize the birds. Composition follows the rule of thirds with the nest near the upper third, the birds forming a gentle diagonal. The mood is timeless, serene, and natural, with textures of twigs, feathers, and weathered pole rendered in crisp grayscale.
