Art style: Cinematic Photorealism. A tight close-up on the man's hands as he grips the edge of a wooden table. The knuckles are slightly white, showing subtle tension. The lighting is warm but dim, with dark green #525e3b shadows creeping across the table's surface. The mood is one of quiet acceptance and misunderstood pain. The focus is sharp on the texture of the wood and the stillness of his hands. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Photorealism" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cinematic Photorealism". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Cinematic Photorealism" idiom, not in any other medium. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Ethan: A man in his mid-twenties with short, neatly groomed dark hair and deep-set, intelligent eyes that reflect curiosity and mild skepticism. He has a clean-shaven, structured face and a lean build. He is seen in a modern home office with a minimalist aesthetic, softly lit by a desk lamp casting a warm glow. His expression is one of deep concentration as he looks at a computer screen. The background features bookshelves with orderly spines and a subtle hint of green plants, emphasizing a calm and intellectual vibe. Brand guidelines: Brand color palette: #525e3b. Use these colors prominently in the composition.
