{
  "vibe_title_en": "Mechanical Melancholy",
  "master_prompt": "Extreme close-up macro portrait. The subject is a melancholic prodigy, tightly framed on one side of the face. A highly detailed, physically textured brass clockwork mechanism with Roman numeral markings curves over the forehead and brow bone like a broken mask, partially obscuring the upper head while leaving one expressive, sorrowful eye visible. The eye reflects warm, dust-filled ambient light. The subject’s fingers are stained with dark ink and graphite marks, gently touching a hyperrealistic golden mechanical hummingbird hovering near the cheek. They wear a heavy, ornate red-and-black high-collared jacket with gold-thread embroidery. Warm directional Rembrandt lighting cuts through dense, dust-filled air, illuminating floating motes. Shot on a Hasselblad H6D-100c with a 120mm macro lens, at f/2.8, with an extremely shallow depth of field blurring the background into soft olive gray. Kodak Portra 400 film emulation, extremely rich skin-pore detail, metal with a sense of real physical weight, cinematic chiaroscuro, pure photographic surrealism.",

How to use

In the example, the clockwork covers part of the forehead, the golden mechanical bird is near the cheek, and ink-stained fingers enter the foreground, matching the subject and composition requirements in the JSON. The camera, lens, and film names here describe the generation style, not an actual record of photography equipment.
