Ultra Realistic Car Bonnet Editorial Portrait AI Prompt With Exact Face Preservation (4:5 Vertical)

Vertical 4:5, a true photograph, not an illustration or 3D render.

Use the uploaded reference image as the ONLY identity reference. Preserve the person's identity with maximum accuracy. Maintain the exact facial features, face shape, eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, ears, jawline, beard pattern (if present), skin tone, hairline, hairstyle, facial proportions, body proportions, age, and overall appearance. Do not beautify, reinterpret, age, de-age, or modify any identifying characteristics. The output must clearly depict the same person from the reference image. Only the facial expression may change as described.

The camera rests directly on the car's bonnet, with the lens sitting on the gunmetal hood near the windshield at hood level, pointed slightly upward using a 35mm focal length. The hood line sweeps out of the bottom of the frame in a soft reflective blur.

The subject leans over the front of the car toward the camera with both palms planted flat on the bonnet, fingers together, arms straight and locked. They look directly into the lens with an unblinking, calm, relaxed expression, jaw naturally relaxed. Two layered silver chains—a curb chain and a longer dog-tag chain—hang forward and swing naturally between the subject and the camera.

Wardrobe: a black nubuck trucker jacket worn open over a charcoal T-shirt, with a gunmetal ring on one planted hand.

Discard all lighting from the reference image. The lighting setup is entirely new: the car is parked close to a pale garage wall at blue dusk. The car's own headlights illuminate the wall, and the reflected light bounces back onto the subject from below-front, creating a cool white underglow. The chin and cheekbones are illuminated from beneath, with naturally inverted shadows across the brow. The skin has a cool paper-white appearance against the deep blue dusk surroundings. Nothing in the frame is brighter than realistic bounced headlight illumination.

Maintain completely natural human proportions. The head, shoulders, arms, and body must match real-world anatomy exactly as captured by a physical camera, with no scaling distortions or oversized facial features.

Ultra-photorealistic 8K detail: realistic skin pores, fine facial hair, flyaway hairs subtly edge-lit, visible nubuck texture, highly detailed chain links, realistic automotive paint reflections, subtle film grain, natural skin imperfections, physically accurate materials, and consistent lighting throughout.

Color palette: deep dusk blue, cool white, and gunmetal. The final result should be indistinguishable from a professionally captured real photograph.
