Create an exceptionally realistic documentary photograph of a Ukrainian woman wearing a traditional wreath and lying in a golden wheat field, photographed from directly above (bird’s-eye view, top-down angle). Style: National Geographic, cinematic neorealism.

Wreath (a dense headdress): Form it from interwoven stems, completely covered with flowers and grain. Blue tier: cornflowers, forget-me-nots, chicory, and flax. Yellow-gold tier: buttercups, dandelions, rapeseed shoots, and one small sunflower. Dominant element: thick golden wheat heads with awns along the upper edge. Details: pollen, tiny scratches, fragility, and visible fibers. The wreath spreads around her head, intertwined with her hair and the wheat in the field.

Clothing: A white shirt made of coarse linen, with dense yellow-and-blue embroidery featuring raised stitches, uneven thread thickness, and fine fibers. Hand-finished embellishments: sequins, beads, and crystals with asymmetry and patina. The fabric forms heavy, realistic folds against the wheat.

Pose and composition: The woman lies on her back in the field, centered in the frame. Her head rests on the wheat and is turned slightly toward the lens; her chin is naturally lowered, not raised. Her body is relaxed, with her arms either resting by her sides or loosely folded over her stomach. Her torso is visible. The wreath rests on her head and on the field, partly pressed into the wheat. The background is an endless sea of golden wheat stretching to the horizon, where it meets a deep blue sky.

Appearance: Match the face exactly to the uploaded selfie (--face_fidelity 1.0). Expression: calm and thoughtful, with a slight smile or her gaze directed toward the sky. Details: visible pores, freckles, capillaries, natural blush, and lips with uneven natural moisture. Moist eyes reflecting the sky, natural eyelashes and eyebrows. Her hair falls freely across the wheat, with individual strands moved by a light breeze and intertwined with the wreath and wheat stalks.

Lighting: Soft, warm midday sunlight illuminates the whole scene from above (from the camera’s direction). Light passes through the wreath’s flower petals, emphasizes the shirt’s linen texture, and creates sparkling highlights on the golden wheat heads. Add fill light from the sky and reflections from the field.

Style and technique: Raw documentary realism. No retouching, smoothness, symmetry, HDR, color grading, or studio lighting.

Camera settings for realism: full-frame Canon EOS R5, 45 MP, ISO 100, 1/1000, f/4.0 (for greater depth of field, keeping both the face and field details in focus), RF 85mm f/1.2L lens (photographed from above using a tripod or drone). Natural artifacts: slight chromatic aberration at the edges, soft sun flare, dust on the lens, and film grain.

Key emphasis: tactile authenticity of textures—skin, linen, flowers, wheat heads, dry soil, and wheat stalks beside the body.

Negative prompt: (3D, CGI, digital or traditional art, anime, stylization), (plastic, porcelain, doll, wax, artificial flowers), (airbrushing, perfect/poreless/glossy skin, noticeable makeup), (over-sharpening, HDR, toning, bright/saturated colors, “teal and orange” palette), (studio, perfect, dramatic, neon lighting), (bokeh, excessive depth of field, tilt-shift, artificial lens flares, vignette, noise/grain, blur), (deformations, bad anatomy, cloned face, extra or missing limbs, unnatural wreath), (text, watermarks, logos, frames), (symmetrical, posed, selfie, stock-photo composition), (Photoshop, retouching, filters, smoothing), (surrealism, magic, sparks, glowing eyes), (plain, gradient, cluttered, artificial CGI background), (clear/empty sky as the only background with no field, implausible lying pose), (worst quality, JPEG artifacts, pixelation, low resolution).
