Create one vertical 3:4 image: a designed page, not a real place. A muted olive card with a torn strip of white paper laid diagonally across it, the torn edge rough and fibrous. The man in the attached photo appears four times, all the same person, all the same second: four friends photographed him at once from four places. Depiction 1 is the hero, the big print from the friend standing in front: a large print held by black photo corners, slightly off centre, knee-up on a city kerb at golden hour. He wears a white tee under a charcoal bomber jacket and dark straight jeans, one hand in the jacket pocket, the other relaxed at his side, hair short on the sides and textured on top. His head is turned slightly to the viewer's left, chin level, eyes resting on a far point down the street, not on the lens, expression composed and unhurried. Low warm sun from the viewer's right lights the side of his face, the jacket and the kerb together, with a long shadow on the pavement. Depictions 2, 3 and 4 are smaller prints pinned at three corners of the page with round white pins, each showing exactly the same pose and light from another phone: from his left side, so his face is seen in three-quarter; from across the road, a wide frame with his whole figure small on the kerb and a passing scooter blurred in front; and from low near the ground, looking up at him. A thin dotted pencil line runs from each small print to the hero, drawn through the margins and never across a face. No face overlaps another, no pin or torn edge touches a face, and the hero is the largest and sharpest. No text, logo or watermark anywhere.
