## Prompt

```text
A stunning cinematic black and white portrait of a {subject} standing alone in {weather} at night, shown in three-quarter profile with head bowed slightly downward and gaze directed downward — expression heavy, melancholic, and deeply introspective, conveying quiet grief or solitary burden. He wears a {clothing} with a high structured collar turned up slightly at the neck, layered over a dark turtleneck or base layer — the jacket surface catching rain droplets and glistening with wet leather texture. His dark curly-wavy hair is soaking wet, matted and sculpted by the rain against his forehead and temples. The rain falls heavily and dramatically throughout the entire frame — individual rain streaks rendered sharp and bright against the near-black background, falling at a very slight diagonal angle, some streaks motion-blurred into bright vertical lines while others are frozen as individual droplets. The rain is the dominant visual texture of the entire image — filling every inch of the dark background with bright falling streaks creating an almost graphic, painterly quality. The lighting is a single cold directional light from the upper left — catching the top of his wet hair, the left side of his forehead, the ridge of his nose, and the edge of his jaw and collar in bright silver-white highlights, while the right side of his face and body fall into deep black shadow. The overall black and white treatment is high contrast and graphic — deep rich blacks, bright silver highlights, no mid-grey — creating a Sin City or graphic novel aesthetic. Color palette: pure black and white, no color — deep black, bright silver-white rain streaks, grey skin tones. Photography style: cinematic high-contrast black and white, graphic noir rain portrait, 85mm lens, shallow depth of field, photorealistic, 8K.
Use the provided face reference image for all facial details — bone structure, profile shape, nose, jawline, and skin tone should be taken entirely from the reference photo. Apply only the high-contrast black and white treatment, heavy rain, bowed melancholic expression, and cold directional lighting on top of the reference face.
