A Humble Man Bows Under Starlight

Prompt

Isaiah 57: I dwell with him that is of a contrite and humble spirit. A humble Israelite man, large and central, kneels alone on a hilltop at night, his forehead bowed to the ground and his hands open, while a soft beam of golden light falls on him from the vast starry heavens. Far below, a restless sea throws up surf against the rocks. Luminous night in deep blue and gold, a mood of contrition and comfort. 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.
