output template
Create a **high-end cinematic, photorealistic devotional portrait inspired by Indian mythology**, using the user's uploaded photo as the **strict identity reference** for the foreground person. Preserve the person's recognizable facial structure, eyes, nose, lips, skin tone, natural proportions, and distinctive features. Do not replace the person with a generic AI face.
### Subject & Styling
Show the person seated peacefully in a natural **cross-legged meditation pose** beside a sacred riverside setting. The expression should be calm, humble, and deeply devotional, with eyes gently lowered or closed.
Dress the person in a **simple elegant all-white traditional outfit** with realistic cotton texture, subtle embroidery, natural folds, and a lightweight white dupatta/shawl. Keep the styling gender-neutral and understated.
Use **minimal jewelry** only: a delicate bracelet/watch and very subtle earrings if appropriate. Makeup should be extremely light and natural, with realistic skin texture and no heavy glamour styling.
### Devotional Hand Gesture
The person's hands must be anatomically correct and positioned naturally in **Namaste / Anjali Mudra** directly in front of the chest.
Both palms should be gently pressed together, fingers aligned naturally and pointing upward, thumbs resting comfortably near the sternum. The gesture should communicate **devotion, surrender, peace, and spiritual connection**.
Avoid awkward or distorted fingers.
### Sacred Foreground
Place a beautiful **black Shiva Lingam** on a traditional yoni base directly in the foreground, decorated naturally with:
* Fresh white and yellow flowers
* Green bilva leaves
* Subtle sandalwood markings
* Small traditional brass diya
* A delicate incense holder with realistic curling smoke
Keep the shrine elegant and authentic rather than overly decorated.
### Divine Presence
Behind the person, create a **majestic, enormous, photorealistic Lord Shiva** emerging naturally from mist, clouds, and atmospheric light.
Shiva should appear serene, compassionate, protective, and powerful.
Include recognizable traditional elements:
* Long matted jata hair
* Glowing crescent moon
* Subtle stream of Ganga emerging from the hair
* Serpent naturally coiled around the neck
* Rudraksha beads
* Subtle ash markings
* Cool blue-gray skin tone
* Clearly visible but tasteful third eye
* Minimal traditional ornaments
* Calm compassionate expression
Shiva should feel like a **divine presence formed from the surrounding clouds and atmosphere**, rather than a physical person standing directly behind the subject.
### Blessing Gesture
Shiva's raised hand should be positioned naturally in **Abhaya / blessing mudra**, with the palm facing forward toward the viewer and the fingers anatomically correct.
A subtle glowing **ॐ symbol** may appear naturally on the palm.
The gesture should visually communicate **divine protection and blessing** toward the person.
### Trishul
In Shiva's other hand, place a tall, highly detailed **Trishul** with a traditional **Damaru** attached near the upper section.
The Trishul should have realistic metallic texture with subtle warm golden illumination.
Add a restrained mystical glow around it, creating a beautiful contrast against the cool blue-gray environment.
### Environment
Set the entire scene in a peaceful **Himalayan mountain valley beside a flowing river**.
Include:
* Clear mountain stream
* Rocky riverbank
* Tall pine and Himalayan trees
* Snow-covered distant mountains
* Soft morning mist
* Floating atmospheric particles
* Gentle clouds
* Natural vegetation
* Subtle incense smoke
* Warm sunrise visible behind the mountains
The environment should feel tranquil, sacred, vast, and untouched.
### Lighting
Use **cinematic sunrise lighting**.
Combine:
* Warm golden sunlight from behind the mountains
* Cool blue ambient mountain light
* Soft golden rim light around the person's hair and shoulders
* Subtle illumination around Shiva
* Volumetric god rays
* Natural reflections on the river
* Gentle highlights on the Shiva Lingam
* Warm diya flame
* Atmospheric haze
Create a beautiful **cool-blue and warm-golden cinematic contrast** without excessive color grading.
### Composition
Use a **vertical 9:16 composition** suitable for Instagram, WhatsApp Status, and social media.
Composition:
* Person seated in the lower center
* Shiva appearing enormous in the upper background
* Shiva's blessing hand clearly visible
* Trishul positioned toward the upper-right
* Shiva Lingam centered in the foreground
* River creating natural leading lines
* Mountains providing depth
* Soft atmospheric layers separating foreground, middle ground, and background
The person must remain the emotional focal point while Shiva creates a powerful divine presence behind them.
### Photography
Make the final result look like a **high-budget cinematic devotional film still**, captured with a professional full-frame camera.
Use:
* 35mm cinematic lens
* Photorealistic rendering
* High dynamic range
* Natural depth of field
* Realistic skin pores
* Individual hair strands

The final scene should feel **sacred, emotional, peaceful, majestic, and deeply cinematic**, while remaining photorealistic and tasteful.
