Mystical dawn light bathes the ethereal Benin Bronze Forest, where ancient bronze-cast trees with intricate traditional patterns rise majestically from the misty red earth. Towering baobabs with metallic-bronze bark stand sentinel among shorter bronze palm trees, their leaves catching the golden sunrise. The forest floor is decorated with bronze sculptures of leopards and hornbills, partially concealed by vibrant tropical flowers. Winding paths lined with sacred voodoo shrines lead deeper into this surreal landscape where history and nature intertwine. Dappled light creates an interplay of shadow and brilliance on the polished bronze surfaces. Distant silhouettes of traditional Fon villages emerge through the morning haze. Rendered in detailed beeswax encaustic technique, with rich amber and copper tones dominating the palette. Hyperrealistic details capture both the metallic sheen and organic textures in this uniquely West African dreamscape. <lora:Bruce Holwerda:0.1> <lora:Anime v1.3:0.5> <lora:aidmaFLUXPro1.1-FLUX-v0.3:0.8> <lora:Chris_Luka:0.4> <lora:RM_Artistify_v1.0M:0.4> <lora:flux_dev:1>
