Prompt

Joshua 18: The tabernacle is set up at Shiloh, and Joshua casts lots for the remaining tribes before the LORD. The aged Joshua stands large and central before the tabernacle's woven curtain entrance, casting small lot stones from his hand onto a cloth, while three tribal surveyors kneel beside him with rolled scrolls of the land they have described. Bright clear daylight over the hills of Shiloh. 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.
