Blackout Total Soudain en Plein Jour

A sudden moment of instantaneous pitch-black darkness falling over [a city street during broad daylight], as if the sun vanished for a single second. People freeze mid-step on sidewalks, their silhouettes barely visible in the abrupt total darkness. Birds remain suspended mid-air with outspread wings as if time paused. Pavements and nearby water surfaces appear as still, reflective black glass mirroring faint shapes. Along the distant horizon, a thin, eerie red glow lingers in an otherwise pitch-black sky, hinting at a cosmic anomaly. Documentary realism, natural camera physics, subtle film grain, slight wide-angle lens distortion, photorealistic textures, haunting apocalyptic atmosphere.
