- **Lighting:** Starburst lens flare on metallic highlights, soft glowing aura, backlit silhouette depth — NO studio lights, NO softboxes
- **Aesthetic:** Dreamy ethereal surrealism, vintage luxury editorial, 1990s high-fashion film photography

## Usage

Replace `[SUBJECT GOES HERE]` with the desired subject. Build the prompt as:

```
[SUBJECT], absolute dead-center composition, full subject visibility, floating mid-air, isolated, no pedestals, no stands. Dreamy ethereal surrealism, vintage luxury editorial, 1990s high-fashion film photography. Heavy analog film grain, noisy texture, slight motion blur, soft focus dream-haze, chromatic aberration. Starburst lens flare on metallic highlights, soft glowing aura, backlit silhouette depth. Background: seamless dusk-to-dawn gradient from deep midnight blue (#1A3A5F) through muted steel blue (#7B9BB9) to warm hazy amber sunset (#D4823B). No studio lights, no softboxes, no text, no watermarks, no frames, no borders, no cluttered background, no plastic textures, no hyper-realistic digital sharpness. Aspect ratio 4:5, film emulsion simulation.
```

## Constraints
- Aspect ratio: 4:5 (portrait/Instagram-friendly)
- Subject always floating, centered, fully visible
- Film grain and analog imperfection are features, not bugs
- No digital cleanliness — embrace the dreamy noise
