Scene & Composition
Shot from outside a {argument name="setting" default="glass café at night"}.

The main subject is centered inside the café, standing still and facing the camera.
In the foreground, a dark shadowy person walks past, rendered with strong horizontal motion blur, partially blocking the frame and creating depth.

Only a narrow clear area reveals the subject sharply.

Young adult.

Expression: {argument name="expression" default="natural, calm, slightly sad (not forced)"}.

Right hand holding a disposable coffee cup at chest height, left hand relaxed.
Outfit
{argument name="clothing" default="Oversized dark sweatshirt"}

White sneakers
Environment
A warm night café with plants: hanging vines, tall grass-like plants, wooden tables, soft fairy lights, gentle reflections on the glass.

Outside remains dark with soft city bokeh.
Lighting & Mood
Low-key cinematic lighting.

Most of the scene is dark, with a soft warm glow around the subject only.

Subtle contrast, film-style color grading, realistic shadows.
Camera Style
Eye-level, full-body framing, shallow depth of field.

Foreground motion blur, subject in sharp focus.

Natural film grain, 4K realism.

Profile / Avatar - Early 2000s Internet Cafe Webcam Couple

Fav PromptNano Banana Pro
A candid couple photo of the Woman's Look and Man's Look in the Setting, engaged in the Activity. Render it as the Camera Type, with soft focus, smeared facial detail, color noise, dim uneven indoor light and low-resolution compression. Use awkward webcam framing from a desk-level angle, with a slight tilt and casually cropped shoulders or arms. Include the Era Props naturally in the booth. The couple should look genuinely close and relaxed, with real skin, messy everyday hair and no heavy retouching. Use Face Reference for the matching faces when applicable. Make it feel like an unedited early-2000s personal photo from an old Facebook album or MSN chat, not a modern image with a retro filter. No date stamp, text, watermark, modern electronics or current fashion. Output in the Format.

Use these details:
Woman's Look: "{argument name="woman's look" default="Young woman in her early 20s with straight black hair, a casual graphic T-shirt and a loose zip hoodie"}"
Man's Look: "{argument name="man's look" default="Young man in his early 20s with a thin mustache, tousled hair and a worn casual sweatshirt"}"
Setting: "{argument name="setting" default="A cramped internet cafe booth with a laminate desk, worn carpet, beige walls and bulky CRT monitors"}"
Activity: "{argument name="activity" default="Leaning close together and looking into the webcam during an online chat"}"
Camera Type: "{argument name="camera type" default="Low-resolution built-in webcam capture from a chunky desktop computer"}"
Era Props: [{argument name="era props" default="Wired earphones, A burned CD in a paper sleeve, A chunky desktop keyboard"}]
Face Reference: "{argument name="face reference" default="Use attached photos for the matching person's face when provided; if none are attached, invent both faces"}"
Format: "{argument name="format" default="4:3 landscape"}"
