Photorealistic Chef by the Lake at Golden Hour

Photorealistic scene of a skilled chef standing at the edge of a tranquil lake at golden hour. The chef wears a pristine white double-breasted jacket, a tall white toque, and a dark apron. He stands beside a weathered wooden table with fresh herbs, olive oil, and a sizzling pan. Steam curls from the pan as the lake reflects the soft pink and orange sky. Mist hovers over the water, distant mountains framed by evergreen trees along the shore. The composition uses shallow depth of field, a warm glow on the chef’s face, and ultra-realistic textures of fabric, metal, and wood; slight breeze moving the trees and a subtle lens flare for cinematic lighting.
