Mountain valley landscape framed by dense forest canopy with golden skylight

Digital composite depicting layered atmospheric perspective. Foreground shows mature tree trunks with dappled lighting patterns, dense undergrowth vegetation, and narrow pathway. Middle ground reveals valley basin with soft illuminated slopes. Background renders distant mountain peaks with graduated tonal recession, cumulus formations, and dispersed avian figures. Warm color temperature dominates upper half transitioning to cool green tones in lower register. Volumetric light rays penetrate canopy gaps, creating defined shadow-to-highlight transition zones. Compositional framing creates portal effect through arboreal frame.
