Aerial drone panoramic shot of the White House and Washington DC, vertical 9:16, city functioning normally, press briefing crowd on south lawn, traffic on surrounding streets, on the distant horizon a nuclear detonation fireball in its first seconds, a perfect self-luminous sphere of superheated plasma sitting at ground level, white-hot incandescent core fading to deep orange at its edges, resembling Trinity test first-fireball photographs, no cloud structure formed, harsh directional thermal light bleaching the sky immediately around it, casting hard orange shadows across foreground city, crowd unaware, unified photographic realism, no mushroom cloud, no sunrise, no sunset –raw –profile cebneez –hd –v 8.1
