Photoreal Time Machine on a Glacier

Photorealistic scene of a time machine resting on a vast arctic glacier. The machine is a hybrid of sleek sci-fi design and brass-steampunk elements: a curved chrome hull with glowing cobalt cores, exposed brass gears, analog clock faces, and a floating holographic navigation map above a stone pedestal. Snow swirls in the wind, blue crevasses glow beneath translucent ice, and distant ice cliffs frame the horizon. A lone explorer in a heavy parka stands to the side, breath fogging in the crisp air. The low sun casts long blue shadows; an aurora shimmers in a pale green sky. The ice surface reflects the machine and sky, highlighting microcrystals and frost. Cinematic lighting, ultra-realistic textures, 50mm lens, deep focus in the background, crisp details, cool blue-white palette with warm brass highlights. Mood: awe, discovery, and time travel.
