## Prompt

```text
A highly photorealistic candid photograph of a completely new {subject} standing beside a {location} at {time_of_day}, photographed from inside a parked car through the passenger-side window. She has long, naturally messy dark-brown hair being moved by the evening breeze, a calm slightly distant expression, and wears a dark oversized jacket over a simple casual top. She stands outside the car near a metal roadside guardrail, her body turned slightly away from the camera while she glances back toward the person photographing her. The camera is positioned low and inside the vehicle at an oblique side angle, with the curved car window frame, interior door, and side mirror partially visible in the foreground. The framing is imperfect and feels like a spontaneous travel photograph rather than a planned portrait. Behind her is a completely different coastal landscape with steep green hills, a winding road, scattered houses, rocky shoreline, and calm ocean water stretching toward the horizon. The sun is low near the horizon, creating soft golden highlights along her hair and the landscape while much of the car interior remains dark. Natural smartphone/compact digital-camera photography, realistic lens distortion and perspective, subtle handheld imperfections, authentic skin texture, individual flyaway hairs, realistic clothing fibers and folds, natural facial asymmetry, slight atmospheric haze, subdued contrast, gentle sunset colors, mild digital noise, very subtle film grain, realistic dynamic range, slightly imperfect exposure, soft background blur, no studio lighting, no beauty-filter skin, no excessive sharpening, no artificial CGI appearance. The image should feel like a genuine photograph taken spontaneously during a road trip. Highly photorealistic, vertical 3:4 composition.
