Rainy street portrait under a shop awning

A moody street portrait with real rain behaviour. Useful when every other portrait in a feed is golden hour.

This prompt needs a photo of your own.

The prompt

Identity

Use the uploaded photo as the only source of the subject's identity. Keep the face exactly as it is.

Pose

He stands under a shop awning at the edge of the pavement, hands in pockets, looking out at the street rather than at the camera.

Wardrobe

He wears a dark olive field jacket over a grey crew neck, collar turned up.

Setting

A narrow evening street, shopfront lights and a few signs reduced to soft colour by the rain, wet tarmac holding their reflections.

Light

Mixed light: warm tungsten spill from the shop behind him, cool blue from the open street, rain catching both.

Camera

Shot on a Sony A7 IV at 50mm, f/1.8, ISO 1600. Eye level, chest-up framing, subject right of centre with the street running away left.

Finish

Photographic, grainy at this ISO, cool overall grade with warm pools, natural skin texture, no glow.

Avoid

clean dry ground, studio lighting, plastic skin, altered face, readable shop signage, extra limbs, text, logo, watermark

Negative prompt

clean dry ground, studio lighting, plastic skin, altered face, readable shop signage, extra limbs, text, logo, watermark

How to run this

Copy the prompt and paste it into GPT Image, then set the aspect ratio to 4:5. Upload your reference photo before pasting, not after: a model that has already started without it will invent a face instead of keeping yours.

The prompt is written in Markdown with each part under its own heading, which is what the copy action hands over. Change one section at a time, keeping the rest intact, so you can tell which change did the work.
