  "prompt": "You will perform an image edit using the person from the provided photo as the main subject. Preserve his core likeness. The scene depicts Subject 1 as a beleaguered Victorian time traveler checking a complicated brass chronometer in a dense, misty prehistoric jungle. The image must be ultra-photorealistic and highly detailed, capturing the texture of fraying velvet, sweating skin, and wet tropical leaves. Use cinematic lighting with dappled sunlight breaking through the canopy to illuminate the subject. The style is that of a high-budget movie, shot on Arri Alexa with a shallow depth of field.",
