Prompt

2 Kings 6: At Dothan the LORD opens the eyes of Elisha's servant to see the hills full of horses and chariots of fire. Elisha, large and central, stands calm and confident on the city wall at dawn, one hand on the shoulder of his frightened young servant, who stares outward in wide-eyed amazement. Below in the valley the Syrian army with horses and chariots surrounds the town, but on the surrounding hillsides blaze ranks of shining horses and chariots of fire, glowing gold and orange against the morning sky. Clear bright dawn 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.
