Friend Comforts a Weary Labourer at Sunset

Prompt

Proverbs 12: Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: but a good word maketh it glad. At the end of a hard day, a weary, stooped labourer sits on a low stone wall with his head bowed and his hands hanging, large and central, and an old friend in a brown mantle sits down beside him, puts an arm around his shoulders and speaks kindly; the labourer's face is just beginning to lift and soften. Behind them a village lane and the warm orange glow of sunset. 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.
