Tornado over Red Mesa: Photoreal Desert Scene

A photorealistic, cinematic landscape of a tornado in a desert mesa setting. Red sandstone mesas with layered, wind-sculpted cliffs rise from the arid plain. A dark, stormy front roils overhead with blue-gray clouds as a tall, twisting tornado funnels toward the ground, sweeping up a broad plume of dust and debris. In the foreground, coarse desert terrain is dotted with sagebrush and cacti, plus a dusty dirt road that leads toward the horizon. Golden-hour lighting cast warm amber highlights on the rock textures and long dramatic shadows, while the tornado and dust plume stand out against the cool tones of the sky. The shot uses a wide-angle lens (roughly 24-35mm equivalent), with high dynamic range to preserve detail in both sunlit rock and shadowed clouds, delivering ultra-realistic textures, crisp rock strata, and motion cues from swaying vegetation and dust around the funnel. Mood: dramatic, awe-inspiring, with a hint of danger.
