Torn-Paper Strip, Trio (Man)

A single 4:5 vertical COLLAGE in the torn-paper-strip format — THREE horizontal panels stacked vertically, separated by ragged hand-torn white paper edges with soft drop-shadows. Each panel shows the SAME man (from the uploaded photograph) in a different pose from one outdoor photoshoot.

SUBJECT: the man in the uploaded photograph, across all three panels.

FACE & REALISM PROTOCOL (mandatory — governs EVERY panel):
- SAME PERSON EVERY PANEL: ONE individual across all three — identical bone structure, eyes, nose, lip shape, eyebrows, jawline, hairline (preserve EXACTLY, do not add hair), facial hair (preserve exactly), marks, and true complexion (never lightened). The viewer reads it instantly as the same man.
- LOCK IDENTITY, RE-LIGHT PER PANEL: lock identity; each panel its own photo with its own light; re-light the face per panel.
- NO FACE-GRAFT (each panel): head, neck, and body one continuous photograph — no pasted neck seam, face not sharper/brighter than the body, skin tone continuous from face to neck to hands (no two-tone).
- CORRECT PROPORTION (each panel): head anatomically sized to the body; do not enlarge the head.

REPLACE from the upload: any chains, rings, bracelets — replaced with the styling below.

The three panels (top to bottom):
- PANEL 1: a waist-up or detail frame — hands adjusting a shirt cuff or sleeve, head slightly down, relaxed. The candid "getting ready" frame.
- PANEL 2: a portrait looking off into the distance (profile / three-quarter), a calm confident expression, the wind in the hair.
- PANEL 3: looking toward the camera with an easy half-smile, hands relaxed (in pockets or at the side), the connecting frame.

All three panels are clearly ONE shoot — same wardrobe, hair, location, light — only pose and crop change.

Wardrobe: a navy or indigo striped cotton shirt (sleeves rolled), with chinos or clean trousers; OR a plain well-fitted shirt in a muted tone. Real fabric, tailored fit. A simple watch. Hair natural, slightly tousled by the breeze; facial hair preserved exactly.

Setting: an outdoor urban location — a bridge railing, a clean wall, a waterfront — softly blurred and consistent across all three panels. Soft directional daylight (open shade or warm late-afternoon) flattering on the face.

The torn-paper edges: ragged horizontal white torn-paper edges between panels, fibrous texture, soft layered shadow on a white page.

Camera language: 50mm prime at f/2.2, full-frame digital, clean warm lifestyle grade. Natural skin texture in every panel — pores, real detail, no smoothing.

Colour treatment: clean, warm, lightly-filmic — one consistent grade across all three panels. Skin true to the upload.

Aspect ratio 4:5 vertical. Torn-paper edges part of the composition. No other text, no caption, no watermark.
