Misty forest path with dramatic god rays through dense canopy

3D rendered environment depicting dense old-growth forest with volumetric light rays piercing through layered canopy. Composition employs god-ray technique with high-dynamic-range lighting. Atmospheric fog creates depth separation between foreground vegetation and background tree masses. Path surface rendered with moisture saturation, mud texture. Foliage exhibits subsurface scattering properties. Light shafts calculated through particle density simulation. Color palette dominates in teal-green hues with warm highlights at ray terminators. Depth-of-field effect applied progressively toward background. Technical execution demonstrates advanced environmental rendering with atmospheric perspective.
