Prompt

Create an ultra-realistic vintage summer portrait photograph that looks like a genuine photograph taken in the late 1980s on a real 35mm film camera.

Use the uploaded person photo ONLY as an identity reference. Preserve the person's identity with maximum accuracy:
- same face shape
- same facial structure
- same eyes and eyebrow shape
- same nose
- same lips
- same jawline
- same beard and facial hair characteristics
- same hairstyle characteristics
- same skin tone
- same age appearance
- same natural facial details
- same body proportions

Do NOT change the person's identity.
Do NOT beautify, redesign, reshape, or create a different person.
Keep realistic skin texture, natural pores, and authentic facial details.

==================================================
SCENE — MEDITERRANEAN 1980s VILLA POOLSIDE

Transform the person into a relaxed 1980s summer lifestyle portrait beside a large outdoor swimming pool at an old luxury Mediterranean villa.

The person is sitting comfortably in a classic wooden pool lounge chair with blue and white striped cushions.

The composition:

- environmental portrait style
- person positioned in the lower-right / center area
- face clearly visible and dominant
- relaxed confident expression
- natural casual pose
- one arm resting naturally on the chair armrest
- other hand relaxed near the leg
- realistic body posture, no fashion-model posing

==================================================

On the left side of the frame:

Near the person:
- a small round wooden side table
- vintage 1980s portable radio / boombox

Keep the background exactly like a real luxury villa holiday photograph from the 1980s.
