## Prompt

```text
Ultra-realistic cinematic black-and-white photograph of a {subject}, walking alone through a {location}, closely inspired by the reference image’s framing, perspective, architecture, lighting, and atmospheric mood, but featuring a completely original male character.
He has an extremely realistic natural face, thick naturally wavy jet-black hair, slightly tousled and falling naturally around his forehead and ears, strong but natural eyebrows, deep realistic dark-brown eyes, straight well-proportioned nose, defined cheekbones, sharp masculine jawline, naturally shaped lips, subtle stubble, realistic pores and fine facial texture. His face must look like a real human being photographed with a professional camera, not AI-generated, not plastic, not overly perfect.
He wears an {outfit} with a white shirt, fitted waistcoat, classic trousers, polished leather shoes, and a long dark overcoat. His clothing has realistic wrinkles, fabric texture, and natural movement.
The man is walking naturally toward the camera but looking slightly downward and to the side, with a calm, thoughtful, subtly confident expression. Natural relaxed posture and realistic anatomy.
Surround him with old weathered stone buildings, textured masonry walls, arched doorways, narrow medieval European architecture, ornate vintage wall-mounted lanterns, and uneven wet cobblestones extending deep into the background.
Match the reference composition: subject positioned slightly left of center, full-body framing, large stone wall dominating the left side, long cobblestone street creating strong leading lines toward the background, vintage lanterns on the right, softly blurred distant architecture.
Soft overcast daylight, subtle atmospheric haze, realistic shadows, wet cobblestone reflections, authentic black-and-white film photography, natural skin tones translated into grayscale, fine film grain, high dynamic range, realistic depth of field, 85mm photographic lens, f/2.8, cinematic focus, extremely detailed skin and hair, physically accurate lighting, professional editorial photography, photorealistic, lifelike, 8K detail.
Avoid: CGI appearance, AI-looking face, waxy skin, excessive skin smoothing, exaggerated jawline, unrealistic eyes, perfect symmetry, overly muscular body, cartoon features, fantasy styling, distorted hands, extra fingers, modern buildings, text, watermark.
