The Prompt
Low golden-hour sun floods a narrow desert canyon, igniting the sandstone walls in bands of orange and crimson while long shadows crawl across the sandy floor. Vertical 9:16, 28mm lens, camera drifts forward slowly through the canyon corridor, walls towering on both sides. Light bands slide down the rock faces as the sun sinks, dust motes drift through the sunbeams, a raven glides between the walls, shadows deepen and stretch. Mood is warm and timeless, palette of burnt sienna, gold and deep violet shadow. Photorealistic cinematic landscape footage, natural light progression, crisp 8K rock texture detail, vertical framing emphasizing the towering walls.
