Coastal Daylight, Linen

A single 4:5 vertical photograph of the person in the uploaded photograph, by the sea on a bright clear day around late morning. Contemporary travel-lifestyle photography. Clean bright natural coastal daylight.

LOCK IDENTITY (never changes): facial bone structure, eye shape and colour, eyebrows, nose, lip shape, jawline, chin, hairline (preserve EXACTLY), ear shape, the person's true relative complexion (never lightened), all permanent marks. Natural facial hair preserved exactly.

DO NOT LOCK the upload's lighting or absolute skin tone — the face is RE-LIT by this bright coastal daylight.

REPLACE from the upload: any earrings, necklaces, chains, rings, watches — replaced with the minimal styling below. Wardrobe and background are set by this scene.

FACE-BODY INTEGRATION & REALISM (mandatory — this governs the entire image):

1. ONE CONTINUOUS PHOTOGRAPH, NOT A FACE-GRAFT. The head, neck, and body
   belong to the same person captured in a single exposure. There is NO visible
   seam, edge, outline, halo, or "pasted-on" boundary anywhere around the jaw,
   chin, hairline, or neck. The face is NOT sharper, brighter, or more in-focus
   than the body — head and body share ONE identical grain, sharpness, and
   focus falloff.

2. SKIN-TONE CONTINUITY (no two-tone problem). The complexion of the face,
   ears, neck, throat, shoulders, arms, and hands is ONE single consistent skin
   tone — the subject's true complexion rendered identically everywhere
   (important here, since arms/chest may be visible). Do NOT render a lighter
   face on a darker body, or a darker face on a lighter body. There is NO tonal
   step at the jawline, neckline, or where the open collar meets the chest. The
   face and body are colour-graded as one.

3. SCENE-MATCHED LIGHTING ON THE FACE. Lock the person's IDENTITY but do NOT
   lock the upload's lighting. The face is RE-LIT by THIS scene: bright coastal
   daylight (often with soft fill from the bright sky and sea-bounce) — the same
   direction, colour temperature, and shadow pattern on the face AND body.
   Catchlights and skin highlights match the environment.

4. CORRECT HEAD-TO-BODY PROPORTION. The head is anatomically sized to the body
   — roughly one-seventh to one-eighth of full standing height. Do NOT enlarge
   the head, widen the skull, or inflate the face relative to the shoulders and
   torso. Neck thickness and shoulder width are natural for the build.

5. HEAD POSE FOLLOWS THE BODY. The angle and tilt of the head sit naturally on
   the neck, consistent with the body's posture and the camera angle. Do NOT
   place a front-facing face on a turned or angled body. Gaze, head-turn, and
   neck angle all agree with the pose.

6. NATURAL NECK & HAIRLINE TRANSITION. The jaw flows into the neck, the neck
   into the collarbones and shoulders, the hairline into the scalp — soft
   natural anatomy, real shadow under the chin, no abrupt mask-edge.

Wardrobe — coastal linen:
Pick ONE:
- A white or cream linen shirt, open at the collar (or partly unbuttoned), sleeves loosely rolled — the iconic coastal look.
- A relaxed linen overshirt over a plain tee.
- A soft pastel linen or cotton shirt (pale blue, sand, sage).
Real linen with visible texture and natural wrinkles, the breeze catching it. Light, airy, holiday palette.

Hair styling: natural hair tousled by the sea breeze. Hairline preserved exactly. Facial hair preserved.

Scene props (replace upload jewelry): a simple watch or none; optional sunglasses held in hand or worn; a relaxed natural ease.

Pose and composition: standing or walking along the shore/promenade, OR leaning on a railing with the sea behind. Body three-quarter to the camera, head to the lens or gazing toward the water and back. Relaxed, easy, unposed. Three-quarter or full-length framing. Camera at eye level. Candid travel feel.

Expression: a relaxed, healthy, happy expression — soft squint-free eyes (shaded from direct glare), a natural easy smile or calm content look. Holiday ease.

Setting — bright coast: a clean beach, rocky cove, or seaside promenade — turquoise-to-deep-blue sea, bright sky with a few high clouds, soft sandy or stone foreground, perhaps distant boats or coastal greenery, softly out of focus. Mediterranean / tropical / Indian-coast all work.

Atmospheric details: sea spray and salt haze, the visible breeze in the shirt and hair, the bright energising feel of a clear coastal day.

Light — bright coastal daylight: primary bright daylight at around 5500K (often slightly diffused by sea haze), with strong soft fill from the bright sky and sea-bounce keeping shadows open and flattering; bright catchlights in the eyes; clean moderate contrast. Avoid harsh squint — the subject is angled to keep the face open and comfortable.

Camera language: 35mm or 50mm prime at f/2.8, full-frame digital, bright clean travel grade (slightly warm, vivid sea blues), ISO 200.

Colour treatment: bright coastal palette — white/cream linen, blue sea and sky, warm natural skin. Skin true to the upload's complexion, brightly and evenly lit (sun-warmed, not lightened).

Skin handling: pores visible, the healthy warmth of sunlight on the skin, eyelashes resolved, facial hair preserved, natural age kept.

Aspect ratio 4:5 vertical. No text, no caption, no border, no watermark.
