The complete prompt

Create an ultra-realistic travel photograph using the provided reference image as the EXACT visual reference for composition, camera angle, pose, environment, clothing style, lighting, color grading, contrast, saturation, sharpness, and overall photographic look.

IMPORTANT β€” USE MY FACE:
Replace the person's face with MY REAL FACE from my uploaded image while preserving my exact identity. My face must remain completely recognizable as me.

Preserve my:
- exact facial identity
- face shape
- facial proportions
- eyes and eye shape
- eyebrows
- nose shape
- lips and mouth
- cheeks
- jawline
- chin
- natural skin tone
- natural facial texture
- overall age and appearance

DO NOT create a new face and DO NOT make me look like the person in the reference image. The reference image is ONLY for the pose, photography, location, composition, outfit styling, lighting, colors and visual aesthetic. The person in the final image must look like ME.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
πŸ”οΈ SCENE & LOCATION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Recreate the exact visual setting of the reference:

A beautiful daytime travel portrait on a traditional wooden boat in Nainital, Uttarakhand, India, floating on the deep blue-green waters of Naini Lake.

The scene should show:
- Naini Lake stretching behind the subject
- calm but naturally textured lake water
- lush green forest-covered mountains surrounding the lake
- densely wooded hills rising on both sides
- colorful hillside buildings and lakeside houses visible in the distance
- realistic Nainital lakeside architecture
- distant mountain layers
- clear deep-blue sky
- bright natural daylight
- authentic Himalayan lake atmosphere

The location should feel like a genuine photograph taken during a Nainital boat ride, not a studio recreation.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
πŸš£β€β™‚οΈ BOAT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Use the same traditional wooden rowboat design and perspective as the reference.

Boat details:
- polished dark brown wooden sides
- visible natural wood grain
- traditional carved/constructed wooden interior
- warm golden-yellow wooden floorboards
- realistic scratches and subtle signs of use
- wooden bench/seat behind the subject
- realistic reflections and highlights on polished wood
- strong perspective lines leading toward the subject
- boat filling the lower portion of the photograph

Camera should be positioned inside the front/lower section of the boat, creating the same dramatic perspective where the wooden floorboards lead toward the subject.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
πŸ§β€β™‚οΈ SUBJECT & POSE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Place ME sitting casually inside the boat in essentially the same position and body posture as the reference.

Pose:

- one hand resting naturally on the bent knee/leg
- other hand resting comfortably near the side/seat
- relaxed shoulders
- natural casual travel pose
- looking directly toward the camera
- subtle natural smile
- confident but effortless expression

Keep realistic human anatomy and natural body proportions.

Do not make the pose look stiff, exaggerated or model-like.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Recreate the same overall outfit styling from the reference:

- realistic sole and laces
- natural wear/detail
- one shoe closer to the camera due to perspective

Accessories:

- realistic watch proportions

Keep the complete outfit coordinated exactly with the reference's casual premium travel aesthetic.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
πŸ’‡β€β™‚οΈ HAIR & FACE

- casually styled

- strong but natural daytime sunlight
- clear sunny weather

- realistic highlights on face and clothing
- natural shadows
- subtle sunlight reflections on the lake

- no artificial beauty lighting

The face should be naturally illuminated and clearly visible.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

- slightly high contrast
- rich saturation
- crisp details
- deep blacks
- bright highlights
- realistic HDR-like dynamic range
- clean sharp image
- warm natural outdoor tones
- premium vacation photograph appearance

Do NOT make it cinematic-dark, moody, pastel, faded or desaturated.

Keep the bright, colorful, high-contrast travel-photo look of the reference.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
πŸ“Έ CAMERA & COMPOSITION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Match the reference camera perspective very closely.

Composition:
- vertical portrait orientation
- subject centered slightly toward the upper-middle of the frame
- full seated body visible
- shoes extending toward the foreground
- dramatic wide-angle perspective
- boat floor creating strong leading lines
- lake and mountains occupying the background
- subject clearly separated from background
- enough sky visible above the subject

Camera:
- high-quality smartphone/travel-camera photograph
- realistic wide-angle lens
- approximately 24–28mm equivalent perspective
- moderate depth of field
- subject sharp
- background naturally detailed
- realistic optical perspective
- no fisheye distortion
- no artificial lens warping

The foreground shoe should naturally appear slightly larger because of perspective, exactly as in the reference.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
πŸ“ TOP TEXT / TITLE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

At the top of the image, reproduce the same travel-poster style title:

β€œNainital”

Text should be:

- elegant
- clean

- gold/yellow color
- subtle premium travel-poster appearance
- no unnecessary additional text
- no watermark
- no logo

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
πŸŒ„ BACKGROUND DETAIL
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

- colorful roofs
- realistic distant architecture

Right side:

- natural mountain contours

Center background:
- distant blue-green mountain layers
- open lake horizon
- realistic atmospheric depth

Lake:
- deep blue-green water
- natural small ripples

- no artificial repeating patterns

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✨ REALISM REQUIREMENT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The final image must look like an authentic photograph captured during a real Nainital vacation.

It should NOT look:
- AI-generated
- CGI
- 3D rendered
- digitally painted
- cartoon-like
- overly retouched

- excessively smooth
- fake HDR

Maintain:
- realistic skin pores
- realistic hair strands
- realistic clothing folds
- realistic hands

- realistic shoes
- realistic wood texture
- realistic lake reflections
- realistic mountain details
- realistic sunlight
- realistic shadows

MOST IMPORTANT:
MY FACE = MY REAL FACE.
REFERENCE IMAGE = ONLY THE STYLE, POSE, CLOTHING, LOCATION, COMPOSITION, COLOR, LIGHTING AND FILTER REFERENCE.

Keep my identity consistent and recognizable while recreating the photograph as closely as possible.
