## Prompt

```text
Create a hyper-realistic, high-contrast, black and white portrait of a strikingly handsome man for a {magazine} magazine cover. The subject has dark, slightly tousled, wavy hair and a neatly trimmed, subtle beard and mustache. Use 100% same face and hair style as in uploaded image. His expression is intense and direct, with a pensive, smoldering gaze fixed right at the camera. He is positioned in a medium-close-up shot, dominating the frame. He is wearing a {outfit}, unbuttoned slightly at the collar, emphasizing a classy, relaxed style. His left arm is bent, with his hand delicately resting on his jawline/chin. A prominent luxury stainless steel chronograph watch with a metal link bracelet is clearly visible on his wrist, catching the light. The lighting is dramatic and professional, utilizing hard studio light from the side to create deep, sculpted shadows that highlight his sharp jawline, cheekbones, and the texture of his hair and shirt fabric (a high-contrast, classic film noir/editorial aesthetic).

Technical Specifications:
• Aesthetic: {aesthetic}.
• Camera: Shot on 85mm prime lens.
• Film: Fujifilm Neopan 400 film grain.
• Lighting: Dramatic studio flash, hard light, high contrast, sharp focus.
