The elbow, torso, chest and skull are now BEHIND THE CAMERA and must NOT appear anywhere. Maintain a human-level POV on the forearm, but the great forearm surface slopes gently DOWN away from the viewer toward the wrist and hand, enabling a high-country overlook while the camera remains only eye height above its walking surface. The hand is a REGION, easily the area of a US state or a smaller country, hundreds of kilometres across. Its enormous palm is a sprawling lower landscape, and FOUR long finger landforms plus ONE lateral thumb continue from that single palm into the far haze.

The dominant view is a vast nearly black terrain surface climbing at a very gentle grade that seems to continue forever. Its distant rising ground disappears into haze before a normal horizon can be found. It is not a narrow bridge, a steep hill, a cliff wall or an isolated mountain: a broad subtly ascending country covers most of the frame. The observer cannot see the forearm as a complete limb. At the very far limit of visibility, include ONLY A PART of the distant chest/rib mass and ONLY A FRAGMENT of the skull, offset farther away behind it. Their forms are almost the same grey value as the haze, barely discernible, interrupted by the atmosphere, with no crisp silhouette. They must feel thousands of kilometres away, not two nearby bone mountains. Skull eye sockets must not become a prominent face looking at the camera. Foreground immensity and the unending upward grade are the subject; distant anatomical hints are secondary. No nearby ribs, gateways, arches or giant full skull.\n\nCAMERA: 40 mm rectilinear photographic lens, 1.7 metres above the local walking surface. Human first-person still frame.\nSTATION AND LIGHT: Farther up the middle part of the forearm, still well before the elbow. The wrist is now an immense distance behind. Near terrain is broad, dark and gently rolling, with tiny pale chips for texture. Dense layered haze under a high continuous grey cloud roof.\nCOMPOSITION VARIANT: The most minimal forward view: an enormous almost-black upward-running land surface, without a visible edge, summit or normal horizon.
