## Prompt

```text
Create a cinematic, photorealistic split-screen café scene showing the same stylish young man in two surreal coffee moments, divided by a clean vertical split down the center. Left side: the man sits at an outdoor European sidewalk café on a sunny city street, wearing a crisp {left_outfit}, with {left_hairstyle}, facing the camera with a calm serious expression. He holds an oversized white ceramic cup with both hands; inside is creamy latte with a detailed white leaf latte-art pattern, and a dramatic frozen splash of caramel-brown coffee erupts upward from the cup in a crown shape with many droplets suspended in midair. Show café tables, chairs, awnings, tall Paris-like buildings, warm afternoon sunlight, and shallow depth of field. Right side: the same man appears seated inside or at the edge of a cozy modern café, wearing {right_outfit}, hair short and slicked back, also facing the camera with a composed expression. He holds an oversized muted green ceramic cup with both hands; inside is frothy {right_drink}, and a vibrant green liquid splash bursts upward in a crown shape with droplets frozen around it. The background includes a wooden café table, large window, blurred city street, indoor shelves, plants, pendant lamps, and warm bokeh lighting. Use hyper-realistic skin texture, natural hands, realistic liquid physics, rich cinematic contrast, warm golden tones on the left and darker cozy café tones on the right, 16:9 landscape composition, sharp focus on the man and cups, blurred background, no text, no logo, no watermark.
