Cosmic Catastrophe Blackout Scene AI Image Prompt

Earth in broad daylight—but suddenly everything goes completely pitch black for exactly one second, as if the sun itself blinked. People on streets freeze mid-step, their outlines barely visible in the instantaneous darkness. Birds hang motionless in the sky, wings suspended as though reality paused. Rivers and lakes turn perfectly smooth and reflective like black glass mirrors, capturing faint silhouettes. Around the distant horizon, a thin red glow lingers—soft, eerie, unnatural—hinting at something cosmic and catastrophic. Render in hyper-real 16K detail, doomsday visual style, natural camera physics, atmospheric scattering, zero CGI appearance. Photoreal shadows, micro-texture on skin and surfaces, subtle grain, slight lens distortion, chilling documentary realism. Ultra-cinematic, ultra-detailed, surreal but grounded in reality.
