Prompt

John 20: "My Lord and my God." In the lamplit upper room behind shut doors, the risen Jesus, large and central, holds out his open hands toward Thomas, showing him the healed scars in his palms, his face full of patient love; Thomas, close before him, has fallen to his knees, one hand reaching out and then drawn back to his heart, his face overwhelmed with awe and faith as he cries out. Warm golden lamplight and a soft radiance around Jesus, plain stone walls behind, a couple of disciples softly blurred in the background. Reverent, nothing graphic. 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.
