## Prompt

```text
A straight-on medium shot frames a young woman in her {age} with striking model-like features, standing waist-deep in calm pastel ocean water under soft hazy overcast light. The water is a gentle pastel teal and seafoam, the surface dusted with countless soft pale sunlight glimmers drifting across it. She performs an impossible, calmly deadpan act: she holds both hands cupped open just above the water, and the soft glimmers on the surface around her are drifting inward, streaming toward her palms in fine pale threads of light and condensing into a single small smooth glowing sphere of warm fire-yellow light hovering just above her cupped hands, the one saturated point in an otherwise pastel frame. Where the light has gathered, the water immediately around her softens a shade paler. She regards the captured light with a cool, relaxed, dreamy expression, head tilted gently toward it, unbothered, as if gathering light is simply something she does. Her dark hair is wet and slicked back, heavy with water, a few loose strands dripping and falling across one side of her face, half-veiling it. She wears a {outfit}, the neckline a gathered twist-halter wrapping the neck and crossing at the chest, draping in loose folds, sleeveless with bare shoulders and open back. Below she wears a very short micro mini skirt covered in chunky pale yellow and soft gold sequins and iridescent pastel paillettes, gently shimmering, the hem sitting high on the thigh. Layered delicate gold jewelry: stacked thin bangles, a fine gold chain at the neck, slim gold rings, all soft and muted. Soft glossy lips, dewy pale skin. The background is open pastel ocean, pale seafoam teal blending into a hazy whitish sky, the horizon barely visible, soft and diffuse. Gentle overcast daylight, no harsh shadows, even soft illumination, a dreamy high-key haze over everything. The palette is dominated by soft butter-yellow and the single warm fire-yellow of the captured light, pale gold sequins, dewy skin, set against pastel seafoam teal, soft peach and cream. Modern digital camera, soft focus, gentle muted colors, natural proportions. Deadpan surreal and softly dreamlike, a girl quietly gathering light off a pastel sea.
