I’m thinking of building a foggy harbor-side scene with a short siding, a weathered fish shack, and maybe a small switcher moving crates at dawn. Some dim lighting and a tiny boat alongside the dock could bring it to life. 🌫️⚓
The trickiest part will be balancing realism with compression, but that’s the fun of it, right?
