Prompt
IDENTITY & FACE – ESSENTIAL
Use the supplied reference image as the exclusive and highest‑priority source for the woman's identity. Replicate the exact individual shown, keeping every facial trait unchanged—no beautification, age alteration, or facial remodeling.

- Preserve the original face shape, proportions, and forehead contour.
- Keep the exact eyebrow thickness, placement, and shape.
- Maintain the same eye dimensions, spacing, eyelid form, and natural lashes.
- Replicate the nose structure, nostril size, and overall nasal proportions.
- Duplicate the lip contour, shape, and the neutral or subtle smile present.
- Retain the cheekbones, jawline, and chin as in the reference.
- Preserve the authentic skin texture, complexion, and tone.
- Do not slim, lighten, smooth, or otherwise enhance the skin; avoid making the subject appear younger or conventionally more attractive.
- No facial morphing, artificial smoothing, or plastic‑looking modifications.

SCENE & POSE
Generate an ultra‑realistic, high‑resolution DSLR‑style photograph of the same woman seated comfortably on the floor during a traditional Bengali Durga Puja.
- She sits gracefully on the ground before a partially finished alpona, using her fingers to apply white atta/rice‑flour paste.
- One hand actively draws the intricate pattern; the other rests naturally for balance.
- Her gaze is lowered toward the alpona, head slightly tipped down, conveying a calm, focused, devotional mood. Avoid direct eye contact with the camera.

ALPONA DETAIL
The floor features a classic Bengali white alpona crafted from rice‑flour paste, displaying:
- Delicate circular motifs, floral elements, and traditional decorative shapes.
- Curved, symmetrical lines with minor handcrafted imperfections.
- Subtle texture and slight thickness where her fingers have pressed the paste.

CLOTHING
Dress the subject in an elegant white Bengali Banarasi sari with a vivid red zari border, arranged in an authentic Bengali drape.
- Ivory‑colored silk with a rich red border.
- Visible Banarasi weave texture, realistic silk folds, and natural pleating.
- Traditional Bengali pallu elegantly wrapped around her.
- Keep the attire refined yet not overly ornate.

HAIR
Render long, naturally dark, wavy hair flowing over her shoulders and down her back.
- Natural wave pattern, individual strands, and realistic volume.
- A few loose tendrils framing the face.
- Subtle movement and imperfections; avoid an overly polished look.

JEWELLERY & ACCESSORIES
Adorn her with authentic gold Bengali jewellery, detailed yet realistic.
- Traditional gold jhumka earrings.
- A delicate gold necklace.
- Additional modest gold pieces appropriate for Durga Puja.
- Multiple gold bangles on each wrist.
- Genuine metallic reflections and texture, complementing the sari without overwhelming the face.

BACKGROUND
Place a beautifully decorated Durga Mata idol in the rear, surrounded by:
- Warm decorative lamps and soft fairy‑light glows.
- Traditional festive ornaments, subtle flowers, and puja paraphernalia.
- A dark, smoky, atmospheric setting that creates strong contrast between the illuminated idol and the foreground subject.
- Warm golden illumination from the decorations, with faint haze around the idol.

LIGHTING & PHOTOGRAPHY
Compose the scene as a premium DSLR portrait.
- Warm golden practical light emanating from the puja decorations.
- Soft cinematic key light highlighting the woman.
- Natural shadows, gentle rim light on the hair, and realistic skin highlights.
- Light atmospheric haze for depth.
- Shallow depth of field producing crisp detail on the woman and her hands, while the Durga idol and lights transition into a smooth bokeh.
- Vertical portrait orientation, medium‑to‑full body framing, alpona visible in the lower area, idol discernible behind.

REALISM
Ensure the final image reads as an authentic photograph captured during a real Durga Puja, not a synthetic rendering.
- Photorealistic skin, hands, and hair.
- Accurate body proportions and sari drape.
- True‑to‑life jewellery reflections and lighting physics.
- Subtle photographic grain, high dynamic range, and natural depth cues.
- Balanced composition with foreground/background separation, conveying a peaceful, devotional, elegant, and culturally authentic atmosphere.

Do not alter the woman's identity, facial structure, skin tone, or recognizability from the reference image.
