A Viking Ship Burning Like a Torch on a Black Fjord Shore
At night the whole clinker-built hull burns steady, with a fur-collared woman in the foreground, back to the camera.
✍️ I meant to praise the firelight, then realized it all comes down to the --no string at the end: sparks, flying embers, dragon figurehead, a cure for MJ's love of overacting. Writing "no fantasy ornamentation" in the body isn't enough; you need the --no as a second stab.

Documentary realism, grainy film texture, historical reenactment feel: at night on a dark rocky shore, a Viking-age clinker-built boat burns end to end with tall, steady flames while low smoke drifts across black fjord water that mirrors the firelight. In the foreground a lone woman, her long dark hair blown by the wind and wearing a fur-trimmed leather coat, stands in silhouette with her back to the camera. Wide shot, cold blue night sky, muted cold color grade with ember-orange accents, no fantasy ornamentation --no sparks, flying embers, dragon figurehead --ar 9:16 --raw --profile gtt298w --v 8.2
