Prompt Architecture & Anatomy

### 📐 Structured Prompt Anatomy

- **Subject Definition**: Shot_type"": ""Full-body portrait"", master-level composition, breathtaking and serene, dramatic chiaroscuro side-light, award-winning photography aesthetic, museum-quality output, ultra-high resolution, HDR, expert post-processing, technically flawless
- **Framing & Shot Type**: Low-angle hero perspective (Over-the-shoulder conversational framing)
- **Optics & Focal Intent**: 85mm portrait prime lens at f/8.0 deep edge-to-edge clarity across all focal planes
- **Lighting Atmosphere**: Moody chiaroscuro single-source key light with deep velvety shadows
- **Color Grading**: Moody desaturated ambient palette with warm practical accents
- **Model Constraints**: Preserves natural skin texture; avoids oversaturated smoothing.

💡 **How To Customize**: Replace `{SUBJECT}` with your exact character or scene, or switch the Aspect Ratio to `9:16` for mobile reels and wallpaper formats.
