Create an ultra-photorealistic cinematic close-up portrait of a young adult man, inspired by the uploaded reference image.
## Subject and composition
Show the young adult man from the upper chest upward, centered in the frame. Tilt his head slightly upward and turn his face approximately three-quarters toward the right side of the frame. His eyes are gently closed, giving him a calm, introspective, almost meditative expression.
Keep the composition clean and minimal, with ample atmospheric negative space above and around the subject. The portrait should feel like a premium cinematic fashion campaign combined with a futuristic sci-fi editorial photograph.
## Face and skin
Preserve realistic human facial structure, natural proportions, and subtle asymmetry. Give the skin an unusual dark graphite or deep charcoal appearance while keeping it highly realistic and organic. It must not look metallic, plastic, robotic, or CGI.
Scatter thousands of extremely tiny glowing golden-orange particles naturally across the skin, concentrated around the cheeks, jawline, neck, and lower face. The particles should resemble microscopic sparks, dust, embers, and fragments of glowing stardust embedded in the atmosphere around the subject. Let some particles softly illuminate nearby skin, creating subtle warm reflections.
## Hair
Give him very short buzz-cut hair, with extremely fine individual strands clearly visible. The hair should catch the warm backlight, with delicate golden highlights along the edges. Maintain realistic hair texture, visible individual strands, and natural density.
## Lighting
Use strong cinematic backlighting from behind and slightly below the subject. Combine warm golden-orange rim light, deep charcoal shadows, subtle cool blue-gray fill light, glowing amber highlights, soft atmospheric illumination, and delicate light scattering through the particles.
Create a luminous warm edge around the head, ears, neck, and shoulders. Keep the face partially submerged in deep shadow while leaving the contours of the nose, lips, cheekbones, and jawline clearly readable.
## Background
Use a minimal cinematic gradient background that transitions from deep blue-gray or charcoal at the top into rich burnt orange, amber, and red-orange near the bottom. Keep the background clean and atmospheric, with a subtle soft glow and very gentle tonal transitions. Include no objects, buildings, or distracting elements.
## Clothing
Dress the subject in a futuristic minimalist high-collar jacket made from semi-translucent technical fabric. Make the jacket predominantly pale silver or off-white, with subtle reflective properties. Add thousands of tiny warm golden particles and illuminated specks to its surface, visually connecting the clothing with the cosmic atmosphere. Show a small central zipper beneath the neck.
## Camera and photography
Use premium full-frame cinematic photography with an 85mm portrait lens, shallow depth of field, precise facial focus, and soft background falloff. Use natural optical rendering, realistic skin microtexture, subtle lens bloom, gentle atmospheric haze, and physically believable light scattering. Preserve shadow detail and control highlights with high dynamic range.
## Visual style and quality
Make the result ultra-photorealistic: a premium cinematic sci-fi fashion editorial combining the aesthetic of a luxury fragrance campaign with futuristic space photography. Use raw photographic realism, not illustration. Include extremely detailed skin texture, realistic pores, individual hair strands, natural facial anatomy, physically accurate reflections, and realistic light behavior. Add subtle analog film grain, delicate halation, soft highlight bloom, and cinematic tonal separation.
The final image should look like an actual photograph captured on a high-end cinema camera, not a 3D render. Aim for 8K-level detail, extremely sharp micro-details, realistic textures, natural exposure, cinematic color grading, high dynamic range, professional studio photography, photorealistic rendering, and realistic atmospheric depth.
