Submerged City with Diver and Electromagnetic Ghosts

Image Description

A submerged city lost to sea-level rise is depicted with detailed urban ruins encrusted with coral. A lone figure wearing a retrofitted diving suit with a cybernetic arm walks through the watery streets. The arm is connected to a harpoon-like device that records rather than kills, capturing electromagnetic ghosts from the past. These ghosts appear as ethereal, shimmering holograms—such as a laughing child and a talking couple—visible amid the ruins. Schools of bio-luminescent, genetically engineered fish swim among the ghostly images, sometimes distorting them. The scene combines photorealistic, cinematic lighting with volumetric caustics, creating an atmosphere of haunting beauty, profound loss, and solitary purpose.

9:16 aspect ratio, cinematic, hyperdetailed, photorealistic, volumetric caustic lighting. A submerged, decaying urban district—a city lost to sea-level rise. A lone figure in a worn, retrofitted diving suit navigates the silent, watery streets. Their cybernetic arm is connected to a harpoon-like device that doesn't kill, but *records*. They are "fishing" for the residual electromagnetic ghosts of the past, visible as shimmering, ethereal holograms of daily life—a child laughing, a couple arguing, a vendor selling food—that flicker and dance among the coral-encrusted ruins. Schools of bio-luminescent, genetically engineered fish swim through the phantom images, sometimes distorting them. The atmosphere is one of profound loss, haunting beauty, and lonely purpose.
