Elephant in heavy storm rain

A massive elephant stands rooted on a rain‑slick plain as a lightning bolt flashes behind its broad shoulders, creating a fierce cinematic moment of survival and calm. The scene reads photorealistic with wet leathery skin that channels muted gray-beige highlights (echoing #AFA69A and #D9CBBE) and deep storm blues in the clouds and reflections (anchored by #1F2A44 and #2E465F). Surfaces are unlettered and clean so the viewer reads only organic textures like mud, stone, and puddles that scatter glints of pale ivory (#F2EDEB) across the frame. Light sculpts the elephant with a crisp backlit rim from the lightning and softer cool ambient fill that separates form and adds subtle warmth on raised skin ridges. The shallow to moderate depth renders the elephant razor-sharp in the foreground while rain-streaked atmosphere and blurred distant trees fall away into the storm. Framing is 16:9 with a medium-wide, low eye-level viewpoint that places the elephant slightly off-center to the right, leaving balanced negative space to the left for implied approach and movement. Include a broken branch and a shallow puddle as story cues, each reflecting streaks of light and adding scale and context. Render in a high-detail cinematic photographic style with painterly grain and tactile wet textures for a dramatic, immersive result.
