Fantasy Illustration of Swirling Clouds and a Bird AI Image Prompt

Horizontal composition, Dan Gartman style fantasy illustration, photographic cloud texture. A massive swirling cloud occupies the upper two-thirds of the image, with cloud layers rolling and rotating like waves, converging from all directions toward the center. There are four cloud layers: the outermost is thin, diffuse deep cyan-blue; the middle layer is dense rolling cloud mixed with teal and dark orange; the deepest center is dense dark purple, nearly black; and the lowest foreground features a few dark streaks of cloud racing past. In the cloud gap slightly above the swirl center, a golden-orange beam struggles out and slants downward through the clouds, illuminating the cloud wisps and water vapor particles along its path to form a visible light shaft. In the lower-right third of the frame, a tiny black bird passes beneath the clouds, wings spread, flying toward the upper right. The bird is extremely small - the entire cloud mass is more than a thousand times its size. A pure black horizon sits at the very bottom of the frame, taking up one-tenth of the image. The ground is empty except for faint distant mountain ridgelines. Colors are dominated by cyan-blue, dark green, and dark purple in the clouds, with golden-orange and red glowing from the swirl center. Overall saturation is low but contrast is strong. Fine grain texture, vignetting at the edges, and slight overexposure at the brightest spot. Cloud texture is delicate and denser toward the swirl center.
