1/2A gritty, flash-lit night photo at a street ATM machine. The main character stands facing the machine, pressing buttons, wearing a hoodie and denim shorts. On the dirty pavement around her feet, instead of trash, are piles of shining solid gold bars stacked carelessly like bricks. A stray dog is sniffing the gold. Harsh street light mixes with direct on-camera flash, creating hard shadows and metallic reflections on the gold. Urban texture, graffiti background, raw realism.

1/2Generate a '2:3' hyper-realistic, high-resolution poster featuring the attached taco image. Adjust its perspective if needed to match the scene’s perspective and blend naturally into the composition.COMPOSITION:Capture a dynamic freeze-frame moment of a taco mid-flip during a street-side catch, shot from a Dutch tilted low three-quarter angle that exaggerates motion and urgency. The camera is positioned slightly below the taco, angled upward, with the taco large and dominant dead-center in the frame, sharply in focus, suspended just above a scarred stainless-steel street cart counter. A single harsh overhead streetlamp mounted top left casts a focused cone of warm light, carving crisp highlights and deep shadows that emphasize motion blur in the background while keeping the taco tack-sharp. The atmosphere is alive with subtle steam rising from the cart grill at bottom left, faint oil smoke drifting upward, and tiny airborne crumbs frozen mid-air. The tone is clean, appetizing, cinematic, and urban. The food-signature prop is a custom round taco press stamped with geometric chili patterns, resting closed on the counter in the lower right foreground beneath the airborne taco, its metal edges catching the lamp’s glare. The story-signature prop is a battered transit-station flip-clock timer mounted on the back wall at top right, showing '19 03' on split flip panels, implying split-second timing and street rhythm. Wet pavement reflections shimmer in the blurred background, grounding the scene in a late-night street setting. Keep visible wiring and cables subtly running along the wall toward the neon and props, with a faint magenta/purple spill mixing into the neon glow on the wall and paper.HEADER: 'STREET FLIGHT'The header is physically formed from bent single neon tubing (no double tubes). Neon tubes are made of reflective glass with neon gas inside, mounted on a chipped concrete wall in the upper center background behind the taco. The neon tubes glow 'warm amber', with uneven brightness, faint buzzing, and soot-darkened mounting brackets. The header is stacked on two lines: 'STREET' above 'FLIGHT'. The letters cast soft neon spill and distorted shadows across the wall’s cracked surface, with minimal grime dulling parts of the glow, and thin black power cables feeding into the neon from the right.TAGLINE: 'Caught in Motion'The tagline is printed in bold condensed sans-serif on a narrow strip of grease-stained receipt paper taped directly beneath the neon header using four translucent yellow tape pieces. The paper sags slightly at the center, edges curled and darkened by oil, catching a softer secondary glow from the neon above with a faint magenta/purple tint in the spill.CALL TO ACTION: 'ORDER NOW'The cta is integrated into the taco press hardware in the foreground as on an angled metal bar/handle element, reading as bold, worn black lettering with slight chipping and grease settled into the letter edges, plus a hard specular highlight running along the metal.STICKER: 'HOT'A small circular red vinyl sticker is physically adhered directly to the taco shell, perfectly centered, with slight white highlights. The sticker conforms to the taco curvature, shows tiny wrinkles under the adhesive, and tiny air pockets are trapped beneath the adhesive to reflect realism.

"full_prompt_text": "A heavily distorted, low-fidelity surveillance-style image depicts the Subject standing behind a cramped retail checkout counter inside a cluttered shop, captured from a high-mounted camera angled steeply downward in a top-down CCTV perspective. The image quality is intentionally degraded, with strong motion blur, digital smearing, compression artifacts, heavy noise, scan lines, and subtle fisheye distortion warping the frame edges, making fine details indistinct and stretched. The Subject is centered from mid-torso upward, looking up toward the camera with the head tilted back; facial features are largely obscured by blur and artifacts, though dark oversized sunglasses dominate the face, reflecting ambient light, and the mouth appears open with the tongue faintly visible. One hand is raised toward the camera with the middle finger extended, clearly readable in silhouette but softened and ghosted by motion and low clarity, conveying a relaxed yet defiant posture. The foreground checkout counter is cluttered with papers and a white shopping bag with red rope handles, while the background shelves are densely packed with small items, souvenirs, and figurines that blend into abstract shapes due to low resolution and noise. Harsh, flat fluorescent lighting produces blown highlights, dull shadows, uneven color reproduction, and a cool green-blue color cast with visible banding and reduced dynamic range. Despite an effectively deep depth of field, perceived sharpness remains low, reinforcing a raw, gritty, confrontational mood that emphasizes the authenticity of an unpolished, unenhanced surveillance feed in a vertical 4:5 aspect ratio"
