Anime Mermaid by a Serene Lake at Sunset

A high-detail anime-style illustration of a mermaid by a tranquil lake at sunset. She has long flowing turquoise hair, big expressive eyes, and a shimmering iridescent tail with intricate scales. She sits gracefully on a mossy rock at the water's edge, her tail curling into the calm lake. Gentle ripples reflect the pastel sky—pink, peach, gold, and lavender—while tall pine trees frame a distant mountain range. Soft mist hovers over the water, fireflies float around, and water lilies bloom nearby. The scene uses vibrant colors, crisp line art, cel shading, and cinematic lighting inspired by Studio Ghibli and modern anime aesthetics, with a dreamy, serene mood and shallow depth of field for depth.
