A rugged cowboy with a weathered ranger's hat stands in a vast, futuristic post-apocalyptic desert, the open landscape stretching endlessly under a stark sun. He surveys the horizon with a steely gaze, his high-tech rifle, a blend of classic and futuristic design, slung over his shoulder. The scene is captured in a wide-angle view, accentuating the desolation and expanse of the desert, rendered in cinematic HDR detail. The high-resolution 8k imagery captures the intricate textures of his leather duster and the gleaming metallic components of his weapon. Dust swirls in the arid wind, creating an atmospheric and immersive setting.
