  "prompt": "Use the uploaded image STRICTLY to preserve the same woman’s face, identity, age, skin tone, facial structure, hairstyle, and natural expression with 100% accuracy. No beautification, no face reshaping, no identity change.\n\nCreate an ultra-realistic documentary-style Mattu Pongal portrait of a Tamil South Indian woman interacting respectfully with a native South Indian cow or bull. The mood must feel calm, cultural, and grounded — not dramatic or cinematic.\n\nThe woman is dressed in a traditional Pongal silk saree (tones such as maroon, mustard yellow, deep green, rust, or off-white) with a simple gold zari border, draped in classic Tamil style with natural folds and visible pleats. The blouse is modest, short-sleeved, and traditionally fitted.\n\nHer hair is neatly braided or tied in a low bun, adorned with fresh white malligai poo (jasmine flowers) clearly visible. Jewelry is minimal and traditional: small jhumka earrings, thin gold chain, light gold bangles, and a small red bindi. Makeup is minimal and natural — no glow, no enhancement.\n\nInteraction & Pose:\n• She stands or sits beside the cow/bull with gentle body language\n• One hand softly resting on the animal’s neck or holding the rope calmly\n• Expression is warm, respectful, and composed — conveying gratitude and harmony\n• The animal is calm, healthy, and well cared for (no aggression, no action scene)\n\nAnimal Details:\n• Native South Indian cow or bull only (no foreign breeds)\n• Decorated traditionally with fresh flower garlands, turmeric, kumkum markings\n• Lightly adorned horns (subtle paint or turmeric), small bells\n• Natural fur texture, realistic anatomy\n\nEnvironment:\nAuthentic rural Tamil Nadu Mattu Pongal setting with haystacks, sugarcane stalks, earthen ground, kolam designs, banana leaves, terracotta pots, and a clay Pongal pot (pongal paanai) boiling over with rice and milk nearby. No modern or urban elements.\n\nLighting & Style:\n• Natural morning sunlight only\n• Soft shadows, realistic highlights\n• Documentary realism, photojournalistic tone\n• Optional black-and-white archival feel OR natural color documentary\n\nCamera & Quality:\nEye-level framing, 35–50mm lens look, moderate depth of field, sharp focus on subject, subtle background falloff, visible skin texture, fine film grain, DSLR realism, ultra-detailed 8K photorealism.",
