Ancient Feudal Japan Tree in Dawn Mist

Photorealistic image of a single ancient tree in feudal Japan. A colossal, gnarled pine with a moss-covered trunk and sprawling branches rises from a mossy knoll beside a quiet Shinto shrine. Nearby stands a weathered wooden torii gate and a stone lantern, with lichens clinging to the stones. The ground is a carpet of emerald moss and carefully raked gravel, with fallen leaves at the roots. In the distance, a thatched-roof temple and the silhouette of a castle loom through a soft morning mist as warm sunrise light filters through the canopy. Emphasize ultra-detailed bark texture, dew on needles, and a serene, timeless mood. Render in photorealistic, 8K quality with cinematic lighting and shallow depth of field, using natural earthy colors: browns, greens, and gold.
