  "output_string": "Extreme close-up portrait of a rugged man [ 100% real face from refrences image ] looking intensely over the rim of small, round, yellow-tinted metal sunglasses. His piercing green eyes are clearly visible and sharp, making direct eye contact. He has messy, dark wavy hair falling slightly onto his forehead, with a thick dark mustache and a short, well-groomed beard. Dramatic cinematic lighting (chiaroscuro) with strong contrast. A hard light source hits the center of the face, highlighting the texture of the skin, the bridge of the nose, and the forehead, while the sides of the face fade into deep, moody shadows. The atmosphere is mysterious, intense, and edgy. Hyper-realistic 8k resolution. Focus on extreme skin detail: visible pores, realistic skin texture, slight sweat sheen/oiliness on the T-zone, and individual facial hairs. The yellow lenses should cast a subtle warm glow on the upper cheeks. The background is dark and out of focus (bokeh) to keep all attention on the face. Shot on 85mm lens, f/1.8 aperture for shallow depth of field. Photorealistic, Unreal Engine 5 render style, volumetric lighting, high dynamic range (HDR), color graded with deep blacks and warm amber highlights."
