At the top of the Photorealistic picture taken from a camera image, Merry Christmas 2025

Ultra-high-definition 4K UHD photorealistic scene, cute and heartwarming, realistic textures and accurate lighting with rich depth of field. Vertical portrait orientation with a clean, softly glowing bokeh area near the top for the title. Inside Santa’s cozy North Pole workshop at twilight: warm golden string lights drape across rustic beams, a frosted window reveals gently falling snow and the soft silhouettes of reindeer outside, and a softly blurred Christmas tree twinkles in the background.

In crisp focus at mid-frame, Santa Claus leans over a well-worn wooden workbench, eyes twinkling, rosy cheeks, and a lush white beard with visible individual strands. His red velvet coat shows lifelike pile, plush white fur trim, and a polished brass buckle catching highlights. Two adorable elves in rich, tactile fabrics bring the cuteness: one tiny elf in a knit hat with a jingle bell perches on Santa’s shoulder, adjusting his cap with a tiny mitten; another elf stands on a wrapped gift, striped stockings and green felt vest, balancing a candy cane and a tiny paintbrush, grinning up at Santa.

The workbench is cluttered with charming detail: a half-painted wooden toy train, little jars of paint, spools of ribbon, gingerbread star cookies on a snowflake plate, and a steaming mug of cocoa crowned with marshmallows. Place a small handwritten gift tag propped against a present in the foreground that reads: Have your-elf a merry one!

Lighting: warm, cozy tungsten from string lights plus a cool bluish rim from the snowy window, subtle volumetric glow with visible dust motes, realistic soft shadows, gentle subsurface scattering on cheeks and ears. Camera: full-frame DSLR look, 50mm prime, f/1.8, ISO 200, 1/125s, shallow depth of field; tack-sharp focus on Santa’s face, the elves, and the gift tag, with creamy bokeh on the background lights. Color palette of rich reds, greens, and golds; lifelike wood grain, knit, felt, and fur textures. Render the “Merry Christmas 2025” title at the top in warm, softly glowing white script with delicate gold edging and a subtle frosted shimmer for legibility over the bokeh, without overpowering the scene.
