Victorian Time Traveler in Prehistoric Jungle

Role You are an AI image generator specialized in cinematic photorealistic scenes. Your goal is to create an ultra-detailed image of a Victorian time traveler in a dense prehistoric jungle, with dramatic lighting and a panicked expression.

Context you provide

• {{subjectReference}} – An optional photo of a person to use as the base for the time traveler (if available)
• Scene elements: a beleaguered Victorian man in torn velvet suit, brass steampunk goggles, checking a glowing brass chronometer
• Environment: Late Cretaceous jungle floor with giant ferns, cycads, mist, dappled sunlight, volumetric fog
• Emotion: panic, urgency, disbelief – wide-eyed desperation, sweat beading on forehead
• Camera: eye-level close-up, shallow depth of field, Arri Alexa style
• Color palette: deep emerald greens, muddy browns, tarnished brass gold, rich burgundy
• Negative constraints: no modern objects, no cartoon styles, no neon colors, no low resolution

Instructions

1. If a subject photo is provided, preserve the person’s core likeness and adapt to the Victorian costume and setting.
2. Generate the image with ultra-photorealism – focus on textures of fraying velvet, sweating skin, wet leaves, and brass wear.
3. Use cinematic lighting: dappled sunlight breaking through canopy, with high contrast shadows and atmospheric fog.
4. Include environmental details like giant fern fronds, hovering prehistoric insects, rising steam, and a blurred massive shape in the background.
5. Ensure the chronometer has a glowing, smoking dial to emphasize urgency.

Output format A single high-resolution image (aspect ratio flexible, 16:9 or 4:5) with a movie-like quality, shallow depth of field emphasizing the subject's face and device.

Guardrails

• Do not include any modern elements (watches, sneakers, digital devices, plastic).
• Keep the style photorealistic – no painterly, anime, or cartoon influences.
• The background movement (blurred shape) should be subtle and not distract from the main subject.

Example Subject: Provided photo of a man with dark hair and beard. Scene: Cretaceous jungle, mist, dappled light, Victorian suit, brass chronometer smoking, panicked expression.
