Ultra‑high‑definition 4K photorealistic night photograph: a hushed, snow‑blanketed alpine clearing under a moonless sky where the Milky Way arcs majestically from horizon to horizon. In the foreground, crisp snow crystals sparkle; a narrow path of soft footprints leads to a rustic timber cabin at left, windows aglow with 2700K candlelight. A simple evergreen outside the door carries sparse warm‑white fairy lights; a pine wreath with a red ribbon hangs on the door; thin chimney smoke curls into the cold air. Frost feathers the windowpanes; icicles catch the amber glow. The sky is deep indigo with accurate star colors and visible dust lanes in the Milky Way; gentle green airglow near the horizon, no light pollution. Natural, accurate lighting: only starlight and the cabin’s warm spill, softly illuminating the snow and creating long, delicate shadows. True‑to‑life textures: weathered wood grain, crunchy snow detail, breath‑white frost on nearby pine needles. Composition: wide‑angle, eye‑level, rule‑of‑thirds placement (cabin lower left, Milky Way arching across the upper third), leading lines from the footprints; rich depth of field from foreground snow to distant treeline. Camera look: full‑frame 24mm lens, f/1.8, 20s, ISO 3200 on tripod; clean, realistic noise, subtle contrast, minimal color grading to preserve lifelike tones.

Small caption (if included): “Have yourself a Milky little Christmas.”

Typography: understated warm‑white serif, small, bottom‑right, gentle 5% glow for legibility without overpowering the scene.
