A Messenger Runs With Good News to a Village

Prompt

Romans 10: "How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!" A young messenger runs large and central along a stony mountain path at sunrise, dusty sandaled feet striding forward, a rolled papyrus scroll held to his chest, his face radiant with joy as he calls out good news toward a village on the slope below, where a woman steps out of her doorway to listen. Golden morning light over green hills and a wide blue sky. The messenger wears a wrapped head-cloth over his hair. 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.
