Sunset Photo and Paper-Cut Collage

A vertical collage-style split composition seamlessly merging a realistic photograph with handcrafted paper art. Top half: a high-resolution photograph of a [coastal sunset], featuring dramatic [purple and pink] cloud formations, a [golden sun] touching the ocean horizon, a rugged rocky shoreline on the left, soft waves along a sandy beach, twinkling distant city lights, and a tiny boat on the water. Bottom half: a Japanese paper-cut (kirigami) illustration on a [cream-colored textured paper] background, echoing the scene above with layered cut-out paper clouds in [soft blue and pink], a textured circular [orange] paper sun, torn dark brown paper rocks, and delicate layered white paper waves with realistic drop shadows creating physical depth. Includes elegant Japanese typography: large title reading [“やさしい、夜のはじまり”] in the upper left, smaller poetic subtext below describing the sea and twilight, and brief vertical text in the upper right corner.
