A Freed Prisoner Runs to His Family
A smiling man steps from a dungeon doorway with broken shackles hanging from his wrists and his arms open. His wife and son run toward him.
Prompt
Psalm 146: Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help... which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners... the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down. A freed prisoner steps large and central out of a dark dungeon doorway into blazing morning sunlight, broken iron shackles hanging from his wrists, his face lifted and arms opening in joy, while his wife and little son run toward him across the sunlit courtyard. Joyful release. The men wear wrapped turbans or head-cloths over their 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.
