      "A medium close-up selfie of a handsome young man sitting in the driver's seat of a convertible car with the top down. He is wearing a black hoodie underneath a shiny black puffy vest, and round pantos-style tortoiseshell sunglasses. He has short brown hair styled upward into a textured quiff with matte product, featuring natural texture and slight flyaways against the sky. He has a neutral, confident expression with light stubble. The car features pristine tan leather sports seats and a black mesh wind deflector behind him. The background shows lush green deciduous trees, a light gray residential building with square windows, and an overcast sky with textured clouds. The lighting is soft, diffused natural daylight creating flat, even illumination with minimal shadows. Shot on a smartphone front-facing camera, tack sharp focus on the subject with a slightly blurred background.",
