Prompt

Job 40: Behold now behemoth, which I made with you; he eats grass like an ox; his strength is in his loins, his bones are like bars of iron; he lies under the lotus trees in the covert of the reeds; behold, he drinks up a river and is not alarmed. An immense, mighty river beast like a colossal hippopotamus stands large and central in a broad, shining river among tall papyrus reeds and shady willow trees, water streaming from its massive jaws as it drinks, its huge body glistening in the sun; egrets fly up around it. Bright, warm afternoon light over a lush green riverbank. Style: a blend of photo-realism and cinema, like a still from a big-budget film. Bright, rich, saturated, luminous colour, clear daylight or glowing golden light even in dramatic scenes, never murky or muddy, crisp detail, real human faces full of emotion, shallow depth of field, subtle film grain. Simple, uncluttered composition: ONE clear scene from this chapter, with the chapter's main character or characters large, close and central in the upper and middle frame, and a simple background. No montage, no collage, no inset vignettes, no crowd of small figures competing for attention. Historically accurate ancient Near Eastern clothing, architecture and landscape. Keep the bottom quarter of the frame simple and uncluttered (ground, water or sky) so a large chapter number can be set over it. Absolutely no text, no letters, no words, no numbers, no logos, no watermark, no border, no frame.
