lighthouse storm dark waves lightning

A lighthouse, standing tall amidst a dramatic storm. The lighthouse is centered in the image, positioned in the middle-ground, and is a white tower with red bands. Its light is brightly lit, shining against the dark, stormy sky. Large waves crash around the base of the lighthouse, creating a powerful and turbulent sea scene. Dark, dramatic clouds fill the sky with intense lightning bolts and rain. The overall color palette is dark, with shades of gray, black, and deep blues, contrasted by the bright light from the lighthouse. The perspective is slightly elevated to emphasize the immense scale of the waves, the style is photorealistic with a slightly painterly touch, creating an intense dramatic atmosphere. The composition focuses on the lighthouse as a beacon of hope against the tempestuous storm.
