Still Voltage: Back Room — AI Portrait Prompt

Use the attached reference photo as the identity reference: keep the same face, skin tone, hair and features as the person in that photo, without beautifying, aging or altering them. Create a square 1:1 museum-catalog frame with a strong first read and a slower second read at exactly 2880x2880 pixels. Location: the back room of a scientific-antiques dealer, cabinets unlocked. Show them in a herringbone wool vest over a band-collar shirt, folding a felt square around a glass stem. Use this advanced image-making device as the core logic: a hollow branching fulgurite lifted from desert sand, glass fused along the exact path one lightning stroke took underground turns activity far too fast to witness into a form calm enough to study. Explore what it costs to make an invisible force testify in public; direct expression and posture toward reverent precision, never melodrama or ad-like confidence. Frame from a low three-quarter angle so the demonstration sits between the lens and their attention. Make the composition run one bright line toward their eyes without ever arriving. Render it as high-voltage archival portraiture built from sealed and lawful apparatus, deep-shadow documentary realism, physically true glass reflections, and museum-label restraint, using late blue window light mixed with one warm low-wattage source and a palette of deep charcoal, gunmetal grey, and one violet whisper. Photorealistic: this must read as a real photograph from a physical camera, never an illustration, painting, or 3D render. Resolve real surface detail: wood grain read at honest scale, matte and gloss clearly separated, and no surface uniformly clean. Keep one identity-locked person, credible hands and fingers, natural fabric, and coherent scale, contact, reflections, shadows, airflow, deformation, and materials. Background people only when essential, always secondary and clearly different. Avoid Tesla-coil showmanship, storm lightning skies, arcs crawling on skin, glowing superhero eyes, and cyberpunk neon haze. No text, labels, logos, signatures, watermarks, random symbols, plastic skin, excessive bloom, or glossy AI finish.
