An Israelite Plowing Long Furrows with Oxen

Prompt

Psalm 129 (A Song of Ascents): Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me. The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows... Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up. An Israelite ploughman guides a pair of oxen and a wooden plough, large and central, cutting long deep furrows across a hillside field in the early morning; beside the field a village house has thin grass withering on its flat mud roof. Long shadows, endurance and steadfastness. 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.
