A slow, steady forward micro-push glides subtly closer. The subject’s facial features, skin tone, hair, and body proportions are directly inherited from the reference image and must remain completely unchanged. He exhibits continuous, subtle closed-mouth nasal breathing. Over ten seconds, he holds a piercing gaze before slightly tilting his chin, causing the sharp diagonal slash of warm light to shift across his nose and cheek. Hair remains completely still. The ribbed knit turtleneck rests crisp against the pitch-black backdrop. Raw unretouched photograph, highly detailed natural skin texture, micro-imperfections, realistic fabric weave, film grain. Avoid: identity drift, holding breath, sudden forced exhale, gasping, opening mouth to breathe, chest heaving, airbrushed, plastic skin, 3D render, cuts, transitions.
