## Prompt

```text
Subject:
Reading Next to a Bookshelf

Main Subject:
Bottom right of the screen, in the cookbook corner of a bright large bookstore, a young woman sits on the wooden floor, leaning against the bookshelf holding an open book. The right side is filled with Japanese books with white spines, low wooden platforms and book displays in the back left, and large windows and potted trees further back.

Person & Expression:
Dark brown bob tucked inward under the chin, thin straight bangs above the eyes, large brown eyes, delicate eyelashes, pale pink cheeks, slightly parted coral lips. Face turned forward, head tilted slightly towards the bookshelf, looking at the camera with a calm expression.

Clothing & Pose:
White short-sleeve ribbed top with small front buttons and deep round neck, black denim shorts, black platform thong sandals. Sitting on the floor with knees bent high, legs lightly crossed in front, holding an open Japanese book at chest level with both hands.

Background & Light:
Open bookstore with bright wooden floors and shelves, white books, and greenery in the central back. Soft diffuse daylight enters from large windows in the back left and ceiling lights, evenly illuminating the person's face, legs, and book pages, creating gentle shadows deeper into the shelves.

Composition & Camera:
3:4 vertical composition, wide-angle lens positioned slightly higher than the seated person, capturing full body from top of head to sandals. Person placed bottom right, bookshelf as vertical plane on right, wide aisle space on left half. Feet within frame, focus on face and book, medium depth of field for background.

Texture & Style:
Photorealistic real photo. Detailed rendering of short hair, white ribs, black denim, book paper, wood grain, and floor reflections, in bright warm tones of a natural bookstore snap. Background books depicted naturally as far as visible as Japanese vertical-spine books.

Negative:
Change of sitting-on-floor pose holding a book; loss of bookstore shelves and wooden floor
