Use the uploaded photo only for the woman's identity. Keep her face exactly as in the photo: face shape, eyes, eyelids, eyebrows, nose, lips, jawline, hairline, hair colour and skin tone. Do not beautify, slim, smooth or retouch her face; keep its natural asymmetry and texture.

Create a photorealistic editorial street-style photograph of the woman walking across a city crosswalk in late afternoon, mid-stride, glancing just past the camera. She wears an oversized camel wool coat over a white ribbed knit top, straight-leg dark jeans and white leather trainers, and carries a plain black leather shoulder bag with no visible logo. Full body visible, feet included, shot from slightly below eye level, 35mm look, pedestrians and buildings softly out of focus. Low warm sun from the side, long shadows on the asphalt. 35mm film look, subtle grain.

Real skin texture: visible pores, fine vellus hair, slightly uneven natural tone. Unretouched, no skin smoothing, no beauty filter, no glamorization. No text, no logos, no watermark.

Create an unedited back-camera phone photo of the woman, hair in a messy bun, laughing while stirring a pot of pasta in a small apartment kitchen. A jar of tomato sauce and a wooden spoon on the counter, a few dishes in the sink behind her. Taken by a friend from the doorway, slightly tilted, waist-up. Warm overhead kitchen light plus blue evening light from the window. Phone look: slight noise, natural colour, not graded. A little steam shine on her forehead.

Create a photorealistic travel photograph of the woman in a narrow Kyoto lane with wooden machiya houses at dawn after rain. She wears a beige trench coat, holds a clear umbrella and looks back over her shoulder at the camera, medium distance.

Film look with fine grain. No other people.

Create a photorealistic candid photograph of the woman at the top of a deadlift in a garage gym, standing tall with the barbell at hip height, gripping it just outside her thighs. One identical black rubber plate on each end of the bar, placed symmetrically at equal distance from her hands. Chalk on her hands and on the bar. She wears a grey T-shirt and black leggings, hair in a high ponytail with flyaways. Full body visible, feet included, slightly low angle, 28mm look. Hard daylight from an open garage door on the left. Sweat on her temples, flushed cheeks, focused expression. Not a glossy fitness advert.

Create a vertical contact-sheet collage of nine candid amateur photos in a clean 3x3 grid with thin black dividers: near-miss snapshots that almost became great portraits. All nine show the woman, long glossy dark hair worn loose, in the same outfit and the same cosy city apartment, shot by a friend just before a night out. Outfit: a fitted charcoal ribbed tank top, a high-waisted black denim mini skirt, delicate layered necklaces and canvas sneakers. The apartment has a neutral fabric sofa, a bookshelf, a warm glowing floor lamp and a full-length mirror. Look: direct on-camera flash, the slightly grainy colour of a compact CCD digital camera, subtle noise, occasional motion blur. Each frame has a different pose and a different classic mistake: 1) she turns mid-step and her face smears with motion blur; 2) half-body, leaning on the wall with a hand on her hip, blown out by a flash fired too close; 3) sitting on the sofa arm with legs crossed, laughing and blinking at the exact moment; 4) the autofocus locks on the picture frames behind her, leaving her soft; 5) full-body standing shot with the camera tilted about 20 degrees so the door frame leans; 6) glancing back over her shoulder while the photographer's blurry thumb covers the lower right third; 7) the flash didn't fire: dark, moody and noisy, only her seated silhouette readable; 8) aimed too low, cropping her head at eye level; 9) standing and smiling while the big lampshade behind her lines up like a giant hat. Authentic and effortless, never staged. No timestamps, no camera interface.

Photorealistic 45-degree food photograph of a bowl of tonkotsu ramen: cloudy pork broth with fat droplets, chashu slices with charred edges, a halved soft-boiled egg with a jammy yolk, scallions and a sheet of nori, on a dark wooden counter with chopsticks resting on the rim. Steam rising, a few broth splashes on the counter. Backlight from a window behind the bowl making the steam glow. 50mm look, shallow depth of field. Natural colour, no oversaturation.

Photorealistic real-estate interior photograph of an open-plan kitchen and living room in a renovated loft: exposed brick wall, white oak floors, a matte black kitchen island with three stools, a linen sofa facing tall steel-framed windows. Wide lens, camera at chest height, vertical lines perfectly straight. Bright overcast daylight through the windows balanced with warm pendant lights over the island. Lived-in but tidy: a bowl of lemons, an open book on the sofa. Accurate proportions, no fisheye distortion. No people.

Create an original vintage-style travel poster: a five-storey pagoda silhouetted against a large orange sun, layered blue hills and a few flying cranes, flat screen-print shapes with subtle paper grain.

Clean vector-like shapes, strong silhouette, balanced negative space, legible at small and large sizes. Deep brown on a cream background. No other text.
