Waterfall Plunging Into Misty Plunge Pool

Thick white mist rises from a circular plunge pool where a waterfall crashes down. The water churns with white foam against dark, wet rocks. In the background, a flat floodplain stretches out, glistening with recent rain. Distant mountains appear hazy under the clear, dry mountain light of late morning. The scene is set in early winter, with bare branches and muted earth tones visible on the floodplain. The waterfall dominates the right third of the view, while the pool occupies the lower center. One stone near the water's edge reflects the gray sky. The mist softens the distant horizon, showing depth.
