## The Entry

Create ONE vertical 3:4 photoreal dreamcore photograph in one continuous frame. Capture digitally and grade to evoke the heritage aesthetic of Fujifilm Pro 400H: cool pastel separation, faded dusty pink, aged ivory, muted mint-green, low midtone contrast, gently lifted blacks, fine organic grain, and smooth highlight rolloff. Use restrained optical diffusion around luminous mist and bright reflections while preserving the intended focal subject. Do not imply physical film was used. No red halation, global bloom, HDR, or aggressive sharpening.

### Reference identity
Use the supplied adult woman's person-reference image as the sole source of facial identity. Preserve recognizable facial anatomy, underlying skin tone, apparent adult age, natural asymmetry, and distinctive identity cues without redesign or idealization. Preserve reference-visible body proportions; otherwise use plausible adult anatomy without invented measurements. Reference clothing, pose, lighting, and background do not define this scene.

### Hair
Preserve the reference-visible hair length, color, texture, curl, parting, fringe, tied or loose structure, volume, and overall silhouette. Allow humidity to gather existing strands into slightly damp separated sections without inventing bangs or changing the haircut. Hair responds to gravity and contact.

### Makeup and skin
Use soft wet spa makeup: a very thin water-resistant sheer base that preserves natural texture, softly groomed brows, faint rose-beige cream shadow, an extremely thin brown tightline, separated lashes, translucent muted rose blush, and sheer rose lip balm. Keep the underlying skin tone and natural asymmetry. Surface moisture is distinct from cosmetic sheen; retain satin-to-matte variation rather than uniform oily gloss.

### Scene and space
Show a timeless enclosed vintage bathroom suspended between reality and a recurring dream. No visible daylight or exterior season. The air is still, warm, and humid; include faded mint ceramic wall tiles, darkened grout, wet small floor tiles, and an aged ivory clawfoot bathtub. Dusty vintage-pink Jana spray roses fill the tub. In the foreground, show a partly open condensation-covered glass door and worn door jambs on both sides. The woman and bathtub are in the midground; a quiet mint-tiled wall, softened by localized humid haze, is in the background. The glass carries condensation streaks, not ice or frost.

### Camera and composition
Use a full-frame camera, 40mm lens, approximately f/4. Set an eye-level view from the doorway, roughly 3 meters from the subject. Use a full seated-figure environmental composition: show her entire seated silhouette and the bathtub, with legs concealed inside the tub rather than visible standing legs. Include the tub feet, wet floor, and scattered stems. Place her head around the upper-middle region, leaving about 15% of image height above her crown. Door jambs frame the scene without crossing her face. Photograph through the open gap, not through opaque glass. Focus on her turned face; the nearer glass is softly defocused and the rear wall progressively softer.

### Pose and expression
She sits on the broad inner end ledge of the bathtub, her pelvis visibly supported, both bent legs resting inside behind the near rim and flowers. Her back is oriented diagonally toward the camera. Rotate her upper torso modestly toward the doorway, then turn her head over her anatomical right shoulder for a readable three-quarter face without an extreme neck twist. Her right shoulder is slightly lower. Her left palm rests on the tub rim beside her hip, fingers naturally separated and wrist aligned; her right hand rests quietly on the wrapped fabric over her lap.

She has noticed someone at the door but barely responds: heavy eyelids, gaze directed toward the lens with a distant, unfocused emotional quality, relaxed brows, gently closed lips, released jaw, and no smile. Keep facial features optically readable; emotional vacancy is not literal facial blur.

### Drapery and roses
A long apricot-pink pleated chiffon scarf wraps irregularly around her chest, torso, and pelvis. Several overlapping folds make the chest and pelvis fully opaque and covered. Bare shoulders, upper back, and collarbone remain visible. The scarf is the only visible garment; no exposed nipples, genitals, or buttocks. Fine pleats compress at the waist and seated hip; damp sections become darker and heavier. One long tail crosses the rim and hangs down to touch the wet floor, gathering into a small weighted fold. It does not float or pass through porcelain.

Dozens of cut and kinked green rose stems with dusty-pink blossoms lie in irregular low heaps beside the tub, like abandoned offerings. Their wet leaves adhere locally to tiles. No skin injury or blood. Avoid symmetrical florist arrangements.

### Lighting and atmosphere
One large aged opal-glass ceiling fixture, approximately one meter above the woman's head and slightly behind her, supplies dull cool-neutral overhead light. Its broad luminous cover creates soft downward illumination. Humidity gently scatters the light locally; faint shadows remain below brows, chin, and rim. Her turned face receives the fixture at an oblique angle, with weak green-tinted tile bounce. Do not add frontal fill, flash, or an independent rim light.

The same overhead source creates small reflections on wet tiles, porcelain, and petals; the tub underside and doorway recess remain darker. A few fine droplets sit at her neck and shoulder, not evenly across her whole body. Keep shadow detail and smooth pale highlights.

### Essential direction
Create a distant gaze returning from inside a closed dream. Preserve the same recognizable reference identity. Connect seated body weight, compressed chiffon, hand-rim contact, flower overlap, and downward reflections coherently.

### Watermark
Add the exact text “ⓒyulim_mood” at the bottom center as a fixed graphic overlay. Use a medium signature size, approximately twice a small signature treatment, with a safe bottom margin. Use elegant calligraphic italic lettering with thin hairlines, thicker downstrokes, and a pronounced rightward slant, clean white at moderate opacity. Preserve the exact copyright symbol and underscore. No outline, shadow, glow, box, or border.

### Negative prompt
Alternate person, redesigned face, beauty-filter skin, altered hairstyle, invented bangs, malformed hands, extra fingers, twisted neck, unsupported pelvis, transparent coverage over intimate areas, flowers fused into skin, floating fabric, frost, dense fog obscuring the face, bright frontal beauty lighting, uniform glowing outlines, clipped whites, CGI.
