Prompt

1 Chronicles 5: In the middle of battle against the Hagarites in the grasslands of Gilead, a valiant Israelite captain of the tribes east of the Jordan stops and cries out to God, trusting in him, and his men take heart. The bearded captain in a bronze helmet and leather armour is large and central, holding his round shield and sword at his side and lifting his face and one open hand toward the bright sky in prayer; two archers and a spearman close behind him also look upward. Beyond them, out of focus, the enemy's camels and tents on rolling green pasture-land; brilliant clear daylight with sunbeams breaking through drifting clouds; a mood of courage and faith. 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.
