Capture a portrait of a wise old wizard with a long white beard and serene blue eyes, set against a misty forest backdrop. The scene should capture both enchantment and introspection; the wizard leans on an ancient wooden staff, his distant yet focused gaze piercing through the viewer. Employ a shallow depth of field to accentuate the intricate details of his weathered face and flowing robes, adorned with intricate embroidery and arcane symbols. From a low, unconventional angle, capture the interplay of light filtering through the trees, casting soft shadows on his face and creating an ethereal ambiance. This unique perspective invites viewers into a realm where reality and fantasy merge, leaving them captivated by this wizard's mysterious and magical world.
