Universal Prompt Prompt:
Shot Type: Extreme Close-Up. The camera is positioned directly in front of the subject, capturing only a portion of the face framed by two glasses of water. Composition Techniques: Symmetry, Framing. The image is symmetrically composed with two identical glasses placed centrally, framing the subject's eyes and nose. The glasses create a natural frame within the frame, drawing attention to the distorted eyes visible through the water. Lighting: High contrast, low-key lighting. A strong, directional light source illuminates the subject from the front, creating deep shadows and highlighting the reflections in the water glasses. The background is dark, emphasizing the subject and the glasses. Color Palette: Black, White, Gray. The image is monochromatic, utilizing a full range of tones from deep blacks to bright whites, with various shades of gray in between. Mood and Emotion: Tense, Anxious. The distorted view of the eyes through the water glasses creates an unsettling atmosphere, evoking feelings of unease and introspection. Style: Surrealism. The image blends reality with an altered perception, creating a dreamlike quality that challenges the viewer's sense of normalcy. Location and Setting: Studio or controlled environment. The stark background suggests a carefully crafted setup, likely in a studio setting with controlled lighting. Character Placement: The subject's face is partially visible, with only the eyes and bridge of the nose in frame. Two identical water glasses are placed directly in front of the eyes, magnifying and distorting them. The subject's lips are just visible at the bottom edge of the frame, slightly parted. The water glasses are the focal point of the image, positioned centrally and taking up a significant portion of the frame. They appear to be standard, stemmed water glasses filled nearly to the brim with clear liquid. The eyes visible through the glasses are dramatically magnified, creating an almost fish-eye lens effect. The irises and pupils are clearly visible, seemingly enlarged and slightly distorted by the curved surface of the glasses and the refraction of light through the water. The background is intentionally left dark and featureless, ensuring all attention is on the surreal interplay between the face and the glasses. There's a subtle texture visible on the skin, emphasizing the realism of the portrait despite its unconventional composition. The overall effect is one of disorientation and altered perception, challenging the viewer to question their understanding of reality and self-image. The precision of the setup and the clarity of the distorted eyes create a powerful, thought-provoking image that lingers in the mind.

Prompt for Flux
"Extreme Close-Up of a face partially obscured, centered within a symmetrical composition featuring two identical, stemmed water glasses filled to the brim, positioned directly in front of the subject. The glasses frame the subject's eyes and nose, creating a natural visual focus on the distorted reflections visible through the water, reminiscent of a fish-eye lens effect. The lighting is high contrast with low-key illumination, employing a strong directional light source aimed at the front to create deep shadows across the face, enhancing the reflections in the glasses, while the featureless background remains dark to emphasize the subject. The monochromatic color palette consists of rich blacks, stark whites, and varying shades of gray, contributing to a tense and anxious mood. The surrealism style presents a dreamlike quality that alters the perception of reality, inviting introspection and unease. The subject’s eyes and the bridge of their nose are the primary focus, with lips slightly parted at the bottom edge of the frame. The skin texture is subtly detailed, elevating the realism despite the unconventional setup. This carefully controlled studio environment heightens the sense of disorientation and altered self-image, compelling viewers to question their reality."
