Andromeda Galaxy in a Sea of Distant Stars

A breathtaking, ultra-detailed depiction of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) in deep space, shown as a magnificent spiral with luminous blue-white star-forming knots along winding spiral arms, a bright golden core, and intricate dust lanes. The galaxy is surrounded by an endless field of countless stars scattered across a black cosmic backdrop. Include distant galaxies, faint wisps of interstellar dust, subtle nebular glow in pink and blue hues, and a sense of vast depth with depth-of-field. The scene is illuminated by gentle, volumetric light that casts soft glows on the spiral arms. Render in photorealistic, high dynamic range, 8K resolution, with crisp star shadows, subtle lens flare, and a cinematic composition from a slightly elevated vantage point, giving a sweeping view that emphasizes scale and grandeur.
