A serene, mystical night scene of a tranquil lake enveloped in soft, blue mist. In the center of this stillness, a lone heron stands gracefully on a narrow wooden boat, perfectly balanced and gazing into the quiet distance. Beside the heron, an old-fashioned paper lantern glows with a warm, amber light, casting a soft radiance that contrasts with the cool, shadowy blues of the surrounding scene. The lantern's reflection shimmers on the water’s surface, creating a delicate balance of warmth and tranquility. Towering limestone cliffs rise in the background, shrouded in mist, adding a sense of depth and mystery to the composition. The atmosphere feels almost otherworldly, as if capturing a fleeting moment between reality and dream.
