Create one continuous photorealistic photograph for the surreal editorial “A Guardian Beneath the Eclipsed Moon.” Capture digitally and grade strongly to evoke scanned 35mm Kodak Vision3 500T: visible organic grain, restrained saturation, gentle midtone contrast, smooth highlights, and deep, light-dependent shadows with selective detail. Use a palette of black silk, charcoal rock, ivory-white fur, silver-gray embroidery, and copper-red moonlight. Do not claim physical film; avoid HDR, aggressive sharpening, and global bloom.

REFERENCE IDENTITY AND HAIR
Use the uploaded person-reference image as the sole source of the adult woman’s facial identity. Preserve recognizable facial proportions, underlying skin tone, adult age impression, natural asymmetry, and identity cues. Let the reference define facial anatomy; do not redesign or idealize her. The reference’s clothing, lighting, and background do not define this scene. Preserve body proportions visible in the reference; do not invent exact measurements from a face-only reference.

Replace the target hair completely: natural dark-brown, softly straight hair, mid-back length when released, entirely gathered into a small low chignon against the central nape. Center part, exposed forehead, no bangs, low crown volume, and sides swept behind both ears. Add one slender matte-silver hairpin with a small crescent finial. No main hair falls over the shoulders, chest, or back; only fine temple and nape wisps respond to wind. Replace any conflicting source length, color, texture, parting, bangs, or tied structure with this complete target.

WARDROBE AND MAKEUP
Dress her in a fictional black Korean-hanbok-inspired shamanic ceremonial costume. Use a fitted black woven-silk jeogori with crossed collar, narrow gray-white dongjeong, and short black goreum ties. Sleeves are controlled above the elbows and widen below into hanging panels; wrists and hands remain exposed. Add a full ink-black chima reaching the insteps, with opaque modest layers, and separate long black silk over-panels secured at the waist and trailing behind. Inner silk is medium-weight and matte; outer panels are lighter and subtly reflective. Show visible seams and collar contact shadows. Add plain black beoseon socks.

Keep small crescent, half-moon, and full-moon embroideries along sleeve ends, free panel edges, and skirt hem. Use silver-gray thread with sparse silver thread; it reflects light but never glows. The skirt covers her joined thighs and falls down the tiger’s camera-near flank. Show seated compression and folds radiating from waist and hips, with gravity pulling fabric downward. Keep hems clear of paws and rope.

Use thin, neutral satin skin tint that preserves natural texture and tonal variation. Add groomed natural brows, blended muted taupe outer-eyelid shading, fine brown tightlining, separated lashes, faint rose-beige blush, and muted rose satin lips. No white face paint, glitter, strong contour, or uniformly glossy skin. Makeup changes surface styling only.

WHITE TIGER, RIDING POSE, AND EXPRESSION
Include one enormous living white tiger, a supernatural guardian large enough for an adult rider. Give it credible feline anatomy, ivory fur, charcoal stripes, round ears, whiskers, one tail, and non-glowing eyes. It walks steadily from RIGHT to LEFT with its mouth closed. An advancing forepaw and counterbalancing hind legs create a credible gait; supporting paws remain grounded.

The woman sits side-saddle behind its shoulder blades, with both thighs, knees, and lower legs together on the camera-near side. Support her pelvis with compressed fur; her torso is upright with gentle walking counterbalance. Her anatomical RIGHT palm rests on the nape, fingers against fur, elbow bent, wrist aligned. Her anatomical LEFT hand grips the spirit lead low behind her left hip. No saddle, bridle, harness, collar, straps, or rope is attached to the tiger.

Her chin is moderately raised and her eyes focus on the moon ahead and above. Give her a relaxed brow, calm cheeks, lightly closed lips, and released jaw: solemn composure, no smile, and no camera gaze.

LANDSCAPE AND MOTION
Set the scene at deep night in an open black rocky desert: fractured basalt slabs, dark gravel, low outcrops, and a low dark horizon. Air is clear and dry, with sparse stars. No trees, buildings, vegetation, or dunes. A light wind flows from ahead toward the rear, moving loose panels and hair wisps toward screen RIGHT; heavy skirt folds move less. No dense fog or sandstorm.

CAMERA, MOON, AND COMPOSITION
Use a horizontal 4:3 environmental full shot, lateral view, full-frame-equivalent 50mm, approximately f/5.6. Camera is at tiger shoulder height with a level axis, far enough away to include its entire head, four paws, tail, complete seated rider, and ground contact. Place the tiger slightly RIGHT of center, about 60% of frame width, with open travel space LEFT.

Place one fantastically enlarged total-eclipse moon in the UPPER LEFT, an entire textured copper-red circular disc with dark maroon shading, about 26% of image height. Give it a safe edge margin and a clear gap from her face. No white crescent, missing segment, corona, or second moon.

Place her crown 40–45% down the frame, leaving broad open sky directly above. Do not cut off paws or make the rider excessively small. Her head and upper torso turn slightly toward the moon; the tiger remains in profile. The spirits are beyond the RIGHT edge. The lead exits cleanly RIGHT from her visible left hand, without touching the tiger.

LEAD ROPE
Show coarse, dull gray-beige hemp rope held in the woman’s anatomical LEFT hand low behind her hip. A single gently curved, suspended lead runs outside the tiger’s flank and tail toward the unseen spirit procession beyond the right edge. Her fingers grip the rope naturally. No binding, strap, or knot touches the tiger.

CONNECTED LIGHTING AND EXPOSURE
The enlarged eclipsed moon is the key light, high ahead toward screen LEFT, about 35 degrees above the horizon. Its large apparent disc softens shadow edges. Intentionally enhance the copper-red illumination for this supernatural scene. As a distant source, it illuminates the procession in one consistent direction, without nearby-lamp falloff.

Muted red reaches upturned facial planes, moon-facing hands, collar folds, the tiger’s forehead and back, and exposed rock facets. Nose, collar, sleeves, and bodies naturally block light. Fur remains textured ivory-to-gray under a weak red cast, never saturated pink.

A much weaker, broad blue-gray component from the open overhead night sky reveals upward-facing shadow surfaces of skin, hair, silk, fur, rope, and rocks equally. No second moon or beauty light. Basalt gives minimal bounce; white fur provides faint local reflection beneath her hand and lower clothing.

Use one nocturnal exposure and scene-wide white balance: warmer lit planes, cooler dim shadows. Never lift or neutralize the face separately. Read black silk through folds and contrast against white fur, not luminous outlines. Ground shadows extend rear-right away from the moon; paws and seated fabric show contact shadows. Silver thread only reflects. Catchlights follow moon and sky. Preserve skin, fur, and moon texture; occluded fabric and rock crevices stay dark.

ESSENTIAL ANCHORS, WATERMARK, AND EXCLUSIONS
Maintain the same recognizable reference identity and compact low chignon. Preserve joined side-saddle legs, pelvic support, right-hand nape contact, credible tiger limbs, and grounded paws. Apply grain consistently across the whole photograph.

Add exactly “${watermark:ⓒyulim_mood}” at bottom center as a medium, white, refined calligraphic italic signature, twice a small signature treatment. Center it precisely with a safe bottom margin and readable underscore. No outline, shadow, glow, box, or border.

Exclude identity drift, face redesign, plastic skin, malformed hands, extra fingers, extra tiger limbs, floating rider, straddling, hand penetrating fur, fabric fused into tiger, glowing embroidery or eyes, saddle, harness, bridle, rope attached to tiger, frontal beauty light, unexplained rim light, halo, orange skin everywhere, clipped fur, featureless black clothing, HDR, global bloom, CGI, or illustration. Do not place the spirits inside this frame.
