Temple Carved into Desert Canyon at Sunset

Photorealistic temple carved into the red sandstone cliffs of a secluded desert canyon. Warm golden-hour sun streams through narrow gaps between towering canyon walls, lighting the temple facade with dramatic highlights and long shadows. The temple features intricate bas-relief carvings along its weathered stone, with patches of moss and lichen adding age. At the base, a calm, reflective pool mirrors the structure; a shallow carved ramp leads to an ornate entrance. Surrounding landscape includes sparse desert flora like cacti and yucca, wind-sculpted rocks, and distant mesas under a clear blue sky. Dust motes glow in the light; the scene is cinematic, highly detailed, realism-level textures, 8k quality, shallow depth of field for foreground focus, 16:9 aspect.
