Frost-Kissed Mailbox in a Quiet Winter Morning

Photorealistic winter landscape: a frost-covered metal mailbox on a weathered wooden post at the edge of a snow-blanketed rural path. Delicate ice crystals cling to the mailbox and post, with a light dusting of powder snow on the ground. In the background, a small cottage with a warmly lit window and curling smoke from the chimney, surrounded by frost-kissed evergreen trees. The air is quiet and still; cool blue shadows mingle with a warm amber glow from the cottage interior. Emphasize tactile textures—the frost, snow, wood grain, and glass—with shallow depth of field keeping the mailbox in sharp focus while the scene softly blurs into tranquil bokeh. Mood: serene, peaceful, tranquil; style: cinematic, painterly, ultra-realistic, 8k look.
