## Prompt

```text
Subject:
{subject}

Main Body:
Vertical 2:3 realistic photograph. On a calm street corner crosswalk, an adult woman takes a low runner-start-like pose, placed significantly in the center-right of the frame. Her upper body and face are the main focus of the upper half of the frame, with her hands, knees, and sneakers extending downward to create depth.

Character/Expression:
A natural and realistic mature woman. Bright, translucent skin with a subtle glow and natural complexion. Hair is a high dark brown ponytail, with thin bangs and stray hairs around the face glowing thinly under the light. Elegant Japanese-style makeup with pale pink-beige blush, thin eyeliner, long eyelashes, natural tear bags, and moist pink-beige lips. Face turned to the right, eyes looking slightly ahead, and mouth slightly open in a focused expression.

Clothing/Pose:
{clothing}. A sheer white thin shirt is worn loosely over it, hanging slightly off the shoulders. Body type is a mature, healthy balance with natural three-dimensionality. Right knee raised forward, left knee close to the ground, with fingertips spread and touching near the white lines of the crosswalk. White sneakers are slightly further back, with the center of gravity of the leaning posture resting on both arms. Clothing hems and sleeves sag slightly according to the pose, creating soft wrinkles near the wrists.

Background/Light:
Background is {location}. A wooden-style shop front on the back right, roadside trees and road signs on the back left, and shadows of pedestrians in the distance. Text on signs is blurred and unreadable. Clear natural light from morning to late morning, with slightly strong sunlight hitting from the top left, creating highlights on the hair outline, cheeks, shoulders, and arms. The road surface features a overlap of crosswalk white lines and building shadows, with the background softly separated by bright green and gray bokeh.

Composition/Camera:
Close-range shot from a low angle. Shallow depth of field equivalent to 85mm, focusing on the face, upper body, and the hand placed forward. The woman's arms spread to the bottom left and right, with white lines running diagonally to guide the eye to the face. The top of the frame leaves space for the cityscape and sunbeams, with the background heavily blurred. The subject does not go off-frame, but it's a close-up portrait composition.

Texture/Style:
A realistic Japanese portrait as if taken with a professional camera. Skin is not over-processed, leaving natural pores and soft highlights. The white sheer shirt has a semi-transparent fiber texture, the camisole is a smooth fabric, and the road surface expresses fine asphalt particles. Bright and clean color tones, shallow bokeh, natural back-lit rim lighting, and a magazine-quality finish.

Negative:
Unnatural face, unnatural gaze, extra fingers, missing fingers, fusion of hands and feet, joint collapse, poor tool contact, floating, unnatural gravity, incorrect perspective, shadows inconsistent with the light source, garbled text, readable logos, watermarks, overexposure, excessive skin correction, plastic-like skin.
