Colorful Heidelberg Alleyway at Golden Hour

Photorealistic scene of a picturesque Heidelberg alleyway in Germany, with vibrant pastel and ochre-colored buildings featuring exposed timber framing. A winding cobblestone path runs between the facades, glinting in warm golden-hour sunlight. Flower boxes spill bright geraniums, ivy crawls along walls, and wrought-iron balconies add charm. A small café with a striped awning sits toward the far end; bicycles lean against walls; strings of lights arc overhead. Archways frame the view, and the distant silhouette of Heidelberg Castle looms on a hillside above the rooftops. The scene is rich in texture—stone, brick, wood, and foliage—with a shallow foreground depth of field, captured with a wide-angle lens. 16:9 aspect ratio, ultra-detailed textures, high dynamic range. Palette of reds, yellows, blues, greens with warm amber light. Mood: romantic, nostalgic, and inviting.
