How this campsite was made

Image model microsoft/mai-image-2.6

From a first-person view on a paddleboard, the rounded nose and the photographer’s bare feet frame a sandy shore across a small crater lake. Enormous smooth granite boulders fill the beach, their weathered surfaces mottled with damp patches; a mustard-yellow tent sits snugly in the lee of the largest. Nearby, a hammock with a simple rain tarp hangs between stones, and a small telescope stands in trampled grass. Early-summer reeds are green, the morning is hazy with distant wildfire smoke, and the light is soft and uneven, with natural colour and a slightly wide phone-photo look.

Looks like a real photo, realistic detail, nothing overlaid on it. No readable writing anywhere: plain unlabelled gear, no slogans, no number plates.
