Jesus and Disciples Beside the Temple Wall
Jesus stands with three disciples beside the huge white stone blocks of the temple wall, looking up. The golden temple rises behind in evening light.
Prompt
Mark 13: "Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here!" As they go out of Herod's temple, Jesus stands large and central beside the colossal, perfectly cut white limestone blocks of the temple wall, looking up at it gravely, foreseeing that not one stone shall be left upon another; Peter, Andrew and James stand close around him, gazing up in admiration and laying their hands on the huge stones. The golden temple rises above in bright late-afternoon sunlight. 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.
