Indigo Light Portrait

Using the attached photo, keep his exact facial features and identity intact; his expression is free — quiet amusement at the corners of the mouth. Head-and-shoulders, vertical 4:5, beside a tall north-facing loft window. The backs of two knuckles rest lightly along his cheekbone on the window side — barely touching — the remaining fingers curled loosely in toward the palm, the elbow propped below the frame; on that hand a gold signet ring with a black onyx face sits on the ring finger, and a plain gold kada-style cuff rings the wrist, both taking the same soft key as his skin. He wears a midnight-blue raw-silk kurta with a grandad collar, the slubbed weave catching light along the shoulder seam. Discard the reference photo's lighting: the north window stands camera-left, its cool directional light keying the left side of his face while the nose shadow falls right and the loft behind drops away dark; his skin carries a clean porcelain-cool cast at a soft mid-key exposure — no brighter than sunless window light — small cool catchlights at ten o'clock. Shot on a 105mm portrait lens at f/2, focus knife-edged on the eyes and the onyx face of the ring; ultra-realistic 8K-level detail — pores in the falloff, precise stubble, the gold rendered as true warm metal with soft brushed highlights, subtle film grain, natural imperfections; a photograph, never an illustration or 3D render. Color story: north-light indigo and old gold.
