Gabriel Comes to Daniel at His Prayer

Prompt

Daniel 9: Gabriel comes swiftly to Daniel at the time of the evening offering. The aged Daniel, large and central, kneels in sackcloth with ashes on his head in his upper room, praying with his hands raised toward the open window that faces Jerusalem, as the angel Gabriel, a tall shining angel with great white wings, flies swiftly in through the window and touches his shoulder. Warm golden evening light, a mood of answered prayer. 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.
