Glowing Arch with Floating 2026 minimalist

Tags
Show a single glowing arch of light in an empty, dark 16:9 frame; the image is a polished digital painting with cinematic minimalism, intended to feel quiet and slightly futuristic. The arch sits centered, spanning the middle third of the horizontal frame, its curve forming a soft, continuous neon band in electric cyan (#00E5FF) that emits a gentle halo; the surface of the arch reads like glass tubing with a very subtle inner grain and soft corona bloom. At the exact center of the arch, suspended and barely touching the inner curve, float the numerals "2026" rendered as a wafer-thin neon script — delicate, single-stroke, slightly warmer tint toward pale magenta-cyan blend — with a faint reflection on the inner face of the arch where they almost connect. Everything outside the arch is deep darkness grading to a muted plum-to-ink gradient toward the edges (#201033 to #050407), keeping strong negative space above and below for a widescreen cinematic feel. Lighting is cool and soft, the arch producing diffused rim light that gently fades into the background; subtle volumetric haze close to the arch gives a whisper of depth without revealing objects. Composition is centered and symmetrical, headroom and footroom balanced for 16:9 crop, the arch occupying roughly 40–50% of the frame height and leaving ample dark margin for copy or breathing room. Textures are smooth and glass-like on the neon elements, with tiny specular glints and a soft photographic bloom; background stays matte and noise-free with a delicate film grain only near the arch. No other props or figures; the mood is still, minimal, and contemplative, emphasizing the isolated neon "2026" as the focal point.
