A medium-wide shot framed through the out-of-focus branching tines of shed antlers in the foreground of a grown woman around twenty-six, a stone-age tundra shaman with smooth light-olive skin, wide cheekbones, narrow dark eyes lifted toward the sky and two long loose sheets of glossy black hair falling to her waist, kneeling upright barefoot on a soft carpet of crimson bearberry and pale lichen at the centre of a ring of tall shed antlers planted upright in the ground, her hands raised palms-up at shoulder height holding a small birch-bark cup of melted fat as an offering; she wears a short wrap of pale smoked moose-calf hide embroidered with rows of tiny red and white bone beads at her hips and a narrow beaded band across her chest, a long open fringed cape of the same pale hide hanging from her shoulders down onto the lichen behind her, a headband of hanging small brass-coloured pyrite pendants and bone, three short vertical tattooed-looking soot lines on her chin, her face showing a fragile, devoted, quietly sensual awe; around her the endless autumn tundra rolls away in rust, gold and wine-red patches toward low blue hills and shallow mirror-like ponds; the warm low golden light of the midnight sun skimming just above the horizon, casting long shadows of the antler ring across the lichen, her hair and the fringe rim-lit in molten gold, the light blooming over the ponds into a soft glowing haze under a pale peach and lavender sky, a dreamlike atmosphere of endless, sacred, northern quiet solitude; photorealistic photograph with a warm dreamy luminous glow and gentle bloom; vertical composition with blurred antler tines framing the lower corners and her kneeling figure centred within the ring, shallow depth of field melting the tundra into golden bokeh, fine film grain and wide airy atmospheric depth.
