The Ashes Series

Create a stunning image of a medal designed for The Ashes Series, featuring a circular shape with a diameter of 3 inches, crafted from polished silver with intricate gold accents. The medal should hang from a deep maroon ribbon, embellished with subtle gold stitching, symbolizing the historic rivalry. Engrave the front with an embossed depiction of a cricket bat and ball, surrounded by laurel leaves, while the reverse side showcases the year and series details in elegant typography. The color scheme should reflect the traditional colors of cricket, incorporating shades of green and gold. Illuminate the medal with soft, dramatic lighting to highlight its reflective surfaces, set against a blurred background of a cricket field at sunset, creating a warm and celebratory atmosphere. Capture the medal from a slightly angled perspective to emphasize its depth and the details of the engraving, ensuring a composition that draws the viewer’s eye to its craftsmanship.
