Starfleet Doctor Holding Flowers In Cargo Bay

Doctor Leonard McCoy, Bones McCoy, fifties, lean and somewhat angular, with dark hair silvering at the temples and deep-set expressive blue eyes, wearing a blue Starfleet dress uniform. He stands alone in an empty cargo bay after a memorial service, holding a small, slightly desperate arrangement of pale flowers — the kind someone brought from a botany lab, more gesture than decoration. He is looking down at them. His expression is complicated in the way a doctor’s expression is complicated: not grief exactly, not guilt exactly, not relief — a layered thing, honest and unguarded, the face of a man in a private moment. The cargo bay is now empty, overhead lights slightly brighter, the photon tube housing closed and bare behind him. Medium close shot. Warm industrial lighting. TOS aesthetic, very slightly soft focus, painterly and melancholic. John Berkey palette — ochre, blue eyes, medium close shot, warm industrial lighting, lone figure, TOS Star Trek, John Berkey palette, ochre grey-blue shadow, melancholic painterly, retrofuturism
