Photorealistic Archipelago in Dense Fog

Photorealistic seascape of a remote archipelago shrouded in dense fog. A cluster of rugged, wind-swept islands rises from a gray, churning sea. Thick fog hangs low over the water, curling around cliff faces and swallowing treetops, so distant islets appear only as layered, charcoal silhouettes. Foreground features damp basalt rocks, slick with moss and sea spray, with a faint fringe of pine and scrub along the shore. The color palette is desaturated blues, greens, and steel grays; lighting is soft and diffuse through an overcast sky, with subtle volumetric fog shafts barely lighting the scene. The view is wide, panoramic, as if seen from a low, off-axis vantage, emphasizing depth: sharp foreground, midground islands, the faint horizon dissolved in fog. Small seabirds skim the water; there is a ribbon of foam where waves meet the shore. The mood is solitary, mysterious, and serene, conveying the isolation of islands in a heavy veil of mist. cinematic, hyperreal, 21:9
