Prompt

1 Chronicles 11: At the cave of Adullam, David refuses to drink the water from the well of Bethlehem that three of his mighty men broke through the Philistine camp to bring him, and pours it out on the ground to the LORD. David, a young bearded warrior in a worn tunic and leather jerkin, is large and central at the cave mouth, solemnly tilting a clay water jar so a clear silver stream pours onto the rock, his face full of humility and love for his men; three dust-covered, battle-worn mighty men stand close around him watching in awe. Behind them the rocky cave entrance and the bright Judean hills in warm golden afternoon light. 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.
