## Prompt

```text
Upload one reference photo of your face. Using the uploaded image, accurately reconstruct your face and place yourself in this exact {location} scene as an upper body portrait only. You are standing on the platform, body slightly angled left, head tilted upward and to the right at 20 to 25 degrees, looking up past the camera with a deeply introspective, melancholic expression, not looking at the lens.\n\n{glasses_style}. {clothing} buttoned up. Directly behind you, a subway train is rushing past at full speed.\n\nExtreme horizontal motion blur fills the entire background, silver grey train body blur with vivid electric blue stripe streak and warm orange light streak within the blur. Cool teal blue green fluorescent overhead lighting falls naturally on your face and hair from above. Subtle blue train light catches the edge of your right shoulder. Cool cinematic color grade with teal shadows and cool skin tones. Fine film grain.\n\nDo NOT paste your face. The cool fluorescent teal light must fall naturally on your face from above with realistic shadows, a subtle blue rim light on your right shoulder, and a consistent cool color cast across your face that perfectly matches the underground subway environment. 1:1.
