Owl

A majestic snowy owl perched on a gnarled, frost-covered branch in a moonlit winter forest. Its piercing yellow eyes gaze directly at the viewer, feathers ruffled slightly in the cold breeze. The owl's white plumage is accented with subtle dark markings, contrasting against the deep blue-black night sky. Ethereal wisps of mist curl around the bird's talons and the surrounding pine trees. Style: Hyper-realistic digital painting with elements of magical realism Lighting: Soft, cool moonlight filtering through bare tree branches, casting intricate shadows on the snow below. A faint aurora borealis shimmers in the background, adding hints of green and purple to the scene. Color palette: Cool tones dominated by whites, blues, and silvers, with pops of yellow in the owl's eyes and subtle warm undertones in the bark of the trees. Composition: Close-up view, slightly off-center, with the owl occupying the left two-thirds of the frame. The right side shows the misty forest receding into the distance. Additional elements: Small, glowing ice crystals suspended in the air around the owl, creating a magical atmosphere. A distant wolf howl echoes through the forest, adding a sense of wildness to the serene scene.
