# Bible Selfies

A small experiment: what if biblical scenes had been captured with a smartphone?
Using Midjourney, I generated a series of "selfies" from the perspective of biblical figures. The prompts below produced the images — some surprisingly good, some charmingly off. Originally posted in German; this is a condensed English version for the multilingual rollout of the site.

See the [German original](/bibel-selfies/) for the full gallery with embedded context.

## Example prompt

> A selfie of a woman resembling Eve in the time of the Old Testament, blurred body, holding an apple, kneeling in front of Adam. He has a shocked expression with his mouth open and wide eyes, evoking a sense of both fear and surprise. A huge snake looms behind her. Wide-angle lens, surreal humor — reminiscent of the Garden of Eden. `--v 6.0`
