Sprites Hovering Over Thunderstorm Night Yulin

Late spring darkness blankets the Sichuan basin near Yulin, where a thick layer of ground fog pools in the low valleys below. Above this misty expanse, faint lightning fractures the sky, illuminating the edges of small, translucent figures hovering against the storm clouds. Starlight falls through breaks in the heavy cloud cover, casting a dim, cool silver glow on their delicate forms. The landscape recedes in layers of deep shadow and fading light, showing the distance between the grounded fog and the airborne sprites. A thin vein of blue electricity snakes across the upper right corner, cutting through the heavy air.
