Image: A PLAYER DEPARTURE graphic for a fictional cricket

Generated from: A PLAYER DEPARTURE graphic for a fictional cricket club in a management game — a transfer or loan away from the club. ABSOLUTE RULE: the picture contains NOT ONE SINGLE CHARACTER. No letters, no words, no digits, no player name, no destination club name, no headline, no farewell message, no sponsor wordmark, no shirt number. Every panel is a BLANK EMPTY PLATE. Do not write out any word from this instruction anywhere in the image. TONE, and this matters: respectful and warm, never a drama and never a rejection. Nobody is angry, nobody is humiliated, there is no dispute. This is a professional parting on good terms — gratitude for what was, not bitterness about what ends. FRAMING RULE: render the picture as a widescreen 16:9 photograph occupying the central horizontal band of the canvas. The top strip is plain empty sky, the bottom strip plain dark blurred crowd; nothing important enters either strip. SUBJECT: a cricketer walking away from the camera across his home outfield towards the pavilion, kit bag over one shoulder, but turned back over that shoulder to raise a hand to the empty stands in thanks — the gesture of someone saying goodbye well. He still wears the club's navy shirt. The light is late and low, the ground quiet, a few staff at the boundary. He is neither the subject of pity nor of celebration; the composition simply gives him room. The player is an adult of believable appearance, an invented person resembling no real cricketer. INTERFACE LAYER: dark smoked-glass plates in navy over anthracite, clearly darker than what lies behind them. One slim blank horizontal bar in the upper middle, one fifteenth of the picture height; and two equal blank cards side by side in the lower middle, kept clearly apart so the club he leaves and the club he joins never blur into one another. All sit well inside the middle of the picture, far from the bottom. SAFE ZONE: every panel keeps at least one tenth of the picture width and height clear of all four edges. Nothing is cropped. COLOUR: deep navy, neutral anthracite, muted white, low warm evening light. Panel borders stay neutral brushed graphite and warm grey. Everything fictional: original abstract crest without letters, invented kit, no resemblance to any real league, club, player or sponsor. Photorealistic sports photography, sharp, plausible anatomy, correct hands and fingers, natural skin tones, plausible shadows, no HDR oversaturation, dignified and non-sensational.
