Vikings, and Christmas Card

At the top of the Photorealistic picture taken from a camera image, Merry Christmas Tom, Kerry, Lucy and Rosie

Photorealistic 4K UHD vertical winter scene at a snowy Nordic fjord village at blue hour, gentle snow falling. A Viking longship is pulled up on the shore, its carved dragon prow wearing a slightly askew Santa hat, the hull wrapped in warm-white fairy lights and shields painted in candy-cane stripes. Four jolly Vikings (two men, two women) in fur cloaks over knitted red-and-cream sweaters wrangle festive chores: one untangles twinkling lights from his axe with a sheepish grin, one carries a tray of gingerbread shield cookies with runic icing, one roasts marshmallows over a glowing iron brazier, and one loads rune-wrapped presents onto the longship. Nearby, a snowman in a tiny helmet holds a round shield dusted with snow. Pine trees trimmed with lanterns and dried orange garlands frame the mead hall in the background; soft torchlight and lantern glow cast warm highlights on wet wood grain, leather, and braided beards. Breath vapor visible in the cold air; snow sparkles on fur and whiskers. Shallow depth of field with creamy bokeh from the lights; crisp lifelike textures; accurate, natural lighting and color. Camera style: full-frame DSLR, 50mm prime, f/2.8, ISO 400, 1/250s, realistic lens falloff and micro-contrast, rich depth of field, no cartoon look.

Small in-image text for humor: carve onto a weathered wooden sign staked in the snow near the brazier, in runic-inspired English letters:

“Yule be raiding the mince pies!”
