Universal Prompt Prompt:
Shot Type: Extreme Close-Up. The camera is positioned directly in front of a circular mirror, capturing a tightly framed reflection of a face. The mirror takes up most of the frame, creating an intense focus on the subject.
Composition Techniques: Framing, Symmetry. The circular mirror acts as a natural frame within the image, drawing attention to the reflected face. The composition is nearly symmetrical, with the face centered and the red-gloved hands placed evenly on either side of the mirror.
Lighting: Low-key lighting creates a dramatic, moody atmosphere. The face in the reflection appears to be lit from the front, highlighting its pale, ghostly features against the darker background. Soft shadows accentuate the contours of the face, adding depth and mystery.
Color Palette: The dominant colors are a stark white for the face, deep crimson for the gloves, and a shadowy green for the background. This limited but high-contrast palette creates a visually striking and emotionally charged image.
Mood and Emotion: The scene evokes a sense of unease, mystery, and otherworldliness. The pale, expressionless face combined with the blood-red gloves creates a tension between vulnerability and power, life and death.
Style: The image exhibits strong elements of Surrealism and Expressionism. The unnatural color combination, the floating disembodied face in the mirror, and the oversized red gloves all contribute to a dreamlike, symbolic quality that defies realism.
Location and Setting: The setting appears to be an abstract, undefined space. The green background suggests depth but provides no concrete details of a physical location, enhancing the surreal quality of the image.
Character Placement: The face in the mirror is perfectly centered, filling most of the circular frame. Its features are clearly defined: large, dark eyes, a straight nose, and full, dark lips set against alabaster skin. The red gloves enter the frame from the bottom, their fingers splayed to cradle the mirror. The hands are positioned symmetrically, with fingertips just touching the edge of the mirror, creating a cradling or offering gesture.
Texture and Detail: The skin of the face has a smooth, almost porcelain-like quality, contrasting with the soft, fabric texture of the red gloves. The mirror's surface appears flawless, without any visible distortions or imperfections, adding to the surreal nature of the image. The background has a subtle, painterly texture that suggests depth without definite form.

Prompt for Flux
Extreme Close-Up of a circular mirror reflecting a face with a deeply emotional undertone. The camera is positioned directly in front of the mirror, fully capturing the intensity of the reflection, where the mirror dominates the frame. The composition utilizes framing and symmetry, with the face centered and red-gloved hands evenly placed on either side of the mirror, enhancing the strikingly symmetrical image. Low-key lighting sets a dramatic, moody atmosphere, with the face illuminated from the front, showcasing its ghostly pale features against a darker backdrop. Soft shadows play across the face’s contours, amplifying the depth and mystery. The color palette is high-contrast, featuring stark white for the face, deep crimson for the gloves, and a shadowy green background, creating a visually arresting and emotionally charged scene. The mood is one of unease, with the combination of the expressionless face and blood-red gloves invoking a tension between vulnerability and power. The style draws strongly from Surrealism and Expressionism, as the unnatural colors, floating disembodied face, and oversized gloves construct a dreamlike quality that defies realism. The undefined abstract space behind the mirror deepens the surrealism, with the green background suggesting depth yet providing no specific location. The centered face fills the mirror, its features—large dark eyes, straight nose, full dark lips against alabaster skin—vividly defined. The red gloves enter the frame from below, fingers splayed in a cradling gesture, symmetrically positioned with fingertips just touching the mirror's edge. The face's skin has a smooth porcelain-like texture, contrasting with the soft fabric texture of the gloves. The mirror appears flawless, enhancing the surreal element, and the green background offers a subtle painterly texture hinting at depth without clear form.
