Ultra-realistic cinematic close-up right-facing side-profile portrait of a young South Asian man outdoors during warm golden-hour sunset. Use my uploaded face reference as the strict identity reference-match my exact face, facial proportions, beard, mustache, skin texture and hairstyle 100%, no beautification, no skin whitening, no face reshaping. Copy only the pose and composition from the pose reference. Upper chest and shoulders upward, body fully sideways to the right, head straight with chin slightly raised, eyes gently closed, relaxed lips and peaceful emotional expression. Plain oversized matte-black crew-neck T-shirt. Minimal open sunset sky with natural peach-orange and warm amber gradient, subtle blurred horizon. Strong sunset backlight creating a dark moody silhouette; face must remain dark, not bright or front-lit. Thin warm golden rim light outlining hair, forehead, nose, lips, beard, jawline and shoulders. 85mm DSLR, f/1.8, shallow depth of field, low-key exposure, deep shadows, subtle film grain, cinematic color grading, hyper realistic 12k resolution, natural photo, 3:4 vertical portrait.
