Dawn Mist Over Rocky Mountain Pass Near Thimphu

Soft, diffused light from the first dawn washes over a rugged rocky saddle, turning the silhouetted peaks into dark shapes against a pale, milky sky. Thick mist rests on the valley floor below, obscuring the deep green slopes of the early spring landscape. Jagged stones and sparse, dormant vegetation dot the foreground ridge, their edges softened by the heavy fog. The air appears still and heavy, with layers of gray and white mist rolling across the terrain. In the distance, faint outlines of distant ridges emerge from the haze, showing vast, quiet depth. A sharp rock jutting from the left foreground anchors the composition against the fading darkness.
