Misty forest canyon with ancient tree overlooking rocky gorge

Digitally rendered landscape depicting deep canyon gorge with layered mist and volumetric light rays. Ancient gnarled tree dominates foreground left, trunk and branches silhouetted against backlit fog. Rocky cliff faces descend into haze-filled valley. Golden sunlight penetrates dense canopy, creating directional atmospheric scattering. Foreground vegetation in sharp focus, mid-ground progressively obscured by atmospheric perspective. Color grading emphasizes teal-green shadows with warm highlights. Technical execution demonstrates advanced rendering of light refraction through particulate matter.
