## Prompt

```text
Subject:
{subject}

Subject:
The person is placed slightly left of the center of the screen. A full-body photo of a woman sitting on a bench along the outer wall of an old wooden cafe, holding a smartphone in both hands and looking at the screen. Include the sign on the left, a small white bag, the hydrangeas in the back right, and a narrow alley.

Person/Expression:
A small oval face with a round chin, slightly downcast wide eyes, loose thin eyebrows, a thin nose bridge, and small glossy peach lips. Pale pink cheeks and natural eye makeup. Long brown straight hair with thin bangs, flowing mostly to the right shoulder side. A {expression} looking down at the smartphone, concentrated.

Clothing/Pose:
Wearing {clothing}. The white thin-ribbed camisole has a deep round neck with thin lace edging. Pale pink short frill shorts, black platform thong sandals. Sitting on a wooden bench with knees together, legs stretched forward, holding a black smartphone below the chest with both hands. A small white and beige patterned handbag is placed on the left side.

Background/Light:
The cafe outer wall is on the left side of the background, and an alley is on the right side, with hard direct sunlight coming through the leaves. Cafe exterior with wooden window frames, old plank walls, handwritten blackboards, potted plants, and wooden vertical signs. In the back right is a narrow path with blue-purple hydrangeas, stone edges, and green sunlight filtering through trees. Strong summer light from the upper right and leaf shadows create spotted light and dark on the person, wood, and pavement.

Composition/Camera:
High camera viewpoint. The person is large, feet are at the edge of the screen, and the focus is on the person. 3:4 vertical composition, wide-angle full-body photo from a slightly high position. The person is sitting slightly left of center, with stretched legs and black sandals in the bottom center, and the depth of the alley extending to the top right. Do not omit the sign and bag on the left end, and make everything clear from the person to the toes.

Texture/Style:
A photorealistic photo depicting a bright summer daily life. Natural warm colors and high resolution express old wood, thin ribbed fabric, cobblestones, and leaf shadows.

Negative:
Do not omit the smartphone in both hands and both stretched legs.
