Dramatic Sunset Over a Tranquil Lakeside

An expansive landscape at golden hour: a dramatic sunset pours warm orange, pink, and purple light over a tranquil lakeside. Tall trees line the shore, casting long, crisp shadows that stretch across the calm, mirror-like water. Silhouettes of pine and birch create an intricate lattice of branches against a glowing sky. The lake reflects the vibrant colors with glassy surfaces, interrupted by gentle ripples. A narrow wooden dock extends into the lake, its posts creating leading lines toward the horizon. A soft mist hovers above the water near the shore, adding atmosphere. Rendered in photorealistic style with cinematic lighting, high dynamic range, and painterly textures on bark, leaves, and reflections. Composition favors a wide-angle view (18–24mm equiv.), low-to-mid camera angle, moderate depth of field, warm color grading with amber highlights and cool blues in shadows, mood tranquil yet dramatic.
