Prompt

Scene background: A torrential downpour over a storm-lit city at night — the rain itself is the primary subject of this shot. For the full 8 seconds, thousands of clearly visible raindrops fill every region of the frame: streaking silver lines against the dark sky, sweeping at an angle in front of the clouds, churning the city glow below into mist, and pounding against the spire and the subject. Deep within this storm, the subject crouches motionless atop the dome-shaped finial of a tall tower, completely soaked, in strict profile; midway through they turn only their head 45° toward the camera. 8 seconds, vertical 9:16, fully photorealistic, Pentax 645 medium-format photographic quality.

Rain — the dominant, non-negotiable element
From the first frame to the last, the entire atmosphere is "rain actively falling," clearly visible everywhere as motion:

In front of the dark sky (upper frame): countless fine, pale rain streaks, blown at roughly a 10–15° angle by the wind, clearly readable against the clouds — the pale rift in the clouds backlights the entire rain curtain, making the rainfall in the upper half of the frame unmistakable.

In the air around the subject (middle frame): continuous rain streaks passing between the camera and the subject, and also passing behind the silhouette — raindrops cross in front of the dark body, catching faint glimmers; a heavier gray rain curtain drifts laterally through the depth of the frame, with a dense rain wall sweeping through around 0:04.

Over the city glow (lower frame): distant lights flicker and blur in the moving mist and rain — the glow visibly "boiling" from the rain.

On contact surfaces: raindrops strike the shoulders, the top of the head, forearms, knees, and the stone ornament every second, splashing up tiny crown-shaped droplets; water sheets down the curve of the stone; mist bounces at the top of the finial.

Foreground: sparse, large raindrops fall close to the lens, softly out of focus, a few streaking across the frame each second.

The rainfall must never pause, never thin out, and must never exist only as water running on the body — any frame, in any region, without falling rain is wrong. The rain streaks must read as motion (true 180° shutter blur), not static specks.

Activation references
image_1

Image 1: The only input asset and the only identity reference — a single selfie of the user's face. Controls the subject's precise facial identity, facial proportions, skin tone, profile likeness, and gender presentation. Use this as the sole source of face identity with zero drift. Do not use it for clothing, background, lighting, or pose.

Wardrobe rule
If image_1 shows a male, dress the subject in a masculine Spider-Man suit. If image_1 shows a female, dress the subject in a feminine Spider-Man suit. The suit must be a classic red-and-blue Spider-Man outfit, fully form-fitting and fully soaked, with no mask, no hood, and the real face fully visible.

Scene description
Heavy, roiling storm sky: thick deep blue-gray clouds, one narrow pale rift, occasional lightning flickering inside the clouds; a dark dome-shaped urn finial; far below, a hazy halo of city lights. Overall cold tone. The entire scene must include the omnipresent falling rain described above in every part of the frame.

Fusion rules
The subject is lit only by this scene, nothing else — no sun (buried in the storm), no studio key light, no beauty light, no clean rim light. The subject should read as deep-dark, cold-toned, low-saturation, on the same unified color curve as the stone, clouds, and rain: the direction of the rift leaves a faint pale edge on the upper silhouette, the sky provides dim ambient light, and lightning illuminates the subject, the finial, and the entire rain curtain simultaneously within the same frames. The red-and-blue Spider-Man suit is darkened under the gloomy clouds into a near-muted, low-saturation version. Rain and mist pass in front of the silhouette — the subject is embedded inside the weather, never pasted on top. Any frame in which the subject is brighter, warmer, or cleaner than the surroundings is wrong.

Scene map
The finial's circular stone ornament sits in the lower-middle of the frame; the crouching silhouette is centered atop it; the storm clouds occupy the upper frame, pressing close; the pale rift is off to one side; the hazy city glow runs along the bottom edge. Nothing else — no other buildings, no birds, no clutter.

First frame and spatial staging — pose is the focus, execute each point precisely

[Stance — both feet flat, full soles planted] The subject crouches at the very top edge of the finial's circular stone ornament: both feet planted flat on the stone surface with full soles — heel and forefoot both grounded, bearing weight simultaneously; heels never lifted, never on tiptoe, never balancing only on toes or forefoot. Feet spaced about hip-width apart, planted in parallel along the curved edge at the top of the circular ornament, Spider-Man suit boot soles fully adhered to the wet stone, as stable as someone crouched on the edge of a roof eave.

[Crouch — full deep squat] Both knees deeply bent, hips sunk down — almost sitting back onto the heels — a low, solid full squat; thighs close to the calves, body weight centered directly above both fully-planted feet.

[Arms — resting on the knees] Elbows bent, forearms laid horizontally across the tops of both knees, elbows tucked just behind the knees; both hands hanging relaxed in front of the knees, fingers naturally drooping, not gripping anything, fingertips continuously dripping water. The arms support the slight forward lean of the upper body's weight — this is a "resting on one's own knees" posture, not a posed stance.

[Torso and head] Spine slightly curled forward, shoulders rounded over the knees — the genuine posture of someone hunched against wind and rain. Body at a full 90° to the camera — strictly profile, not three-quarter, not front-facing. Head follows the line of the body in profile, facing forward — gaze level, looking straight into the depths of the storm, calm, composed, alert.

[Hair and clothing] The soaked hair hugs the skull and neck, matted into heavy wet strands, water streaming down the hair, jaw, and neck; all clothing is soaked through, clinging, and heavy with weight. The Spider-Man suit is unmasked.

Frame position: top of the stone ornament roughly x45–60%, y65–75%; the crouching silhouette roughly x40–62%, y35–70%; storm sky occupies y0–40%; the pale rift roughly x65–80%, y10–20%; city glow along y90–100%. Rain streaks: 100% of frame, all layers.

[Forbidden] Heels must never lift off, never rise onto tiptoe; feet must never change position; hands must never press against the ground, never grip the edge of the stone ornament; hips must never sit down onto the stone — the subject is crouching, weight borne by both feet with forearms resting on knees.

A living environment — nothing in the frame is static
The clouds drift slowly and visibly over 8 seconds, cloud masses rolling over one another; the pale rift narrows slightly, its light faintly pulsing as the clouds slide past. The distant city glow is alive — individual lights flicker in the rain and mist, a few going dim and bright, the glow breathing with the density of the passing rain curtains. Wind gusts continuously — the angle of the rain tightens and relaxes, wisps of mist tear across the finial, and loose wet strands at the back of the neck tremble; around 0:04 a stronger gust arrives together with that rain wall. The stone ornament is constantly shedding water — a film of water runs along its curved surface, droplets string along the edge, raindrops strike up tiny crowns.

Format mode
A single continuous locked-off shot, 8 seconds, vertical 9:16. No cuts, no zoom, no reframing, no camera movement of any kind. Everything alive in the frame: rain, wind, clouds, lightning, city flicker, and the one single head turn.

Camera
Completely locked off, medium distance, positioned at or slightly below eye level, angled slightly upward, so the subject is silhouetted against the roiling sky, with the city glow far below. No handheld, no drift, no breathing motion — absolutely still, like a fixed telephoto lens quietly watching a motionless figure in the storm.

Action beats — 0:00–0:08 — one locked shot; the subject performs

0:00–0:03 Holding still: The subject remains completely fixed in the pose described above — profile, forearms on knees, gaze level and forward, expression stern and focused. Chest and shoulders rise and fall with slow, heavy, restrained breathing — as if just through great exertion, but not panicked, not shaking. Natural, calm blinking. Rain streaks fill the entire frame — sky, air, city, splashes on contact, large foreground drops. Around 0:01.5–0:02, lightning flickers within the clouds, backlighting the rain curtain for a few frames.

0:03 Head turn: The crouch, hips, knees, and knee-resting arms don't move at all — only the head turns smoothly and calmly 45° toward the camera, unhurried. Wet hair flings a curtain of water with the turn, droplets from the hair tips flicking off into the surrounding rain.

0:03–0:08 Holding still at the new angle: The subject stays fixed. Eyes open, focused on a point far beyond the camera — never looking at the camera. Same slow breathing, natural blinking. Rain stays at full density; around 0:04 that heavy rain curtain and gust sweep through, softening the whole frame briefly; around 0:05.5–0:06 a second lightning flash lights up the falling rain again. The pose never breaks. Final frame: a deep-dark, soaked silhouette, embedded in rain filling the entire frame, motionless.

Materials — mandatory material realism
Skin: real, wet human skin, never plastic-looking or waxy — pores and fine texture visible beneath the water film; rainwater gathers into distinct rivulets rather than even highlights; beaded droplets cling to the fine hairs on the forearms; slight cold goosebumps; knuckles slightly reddened from the cold water; when backlit by lightning, faint subsurface translucency shows at the ear rims and nose tip; no skin smoothing.

Hair: genuinely saturated with water — separated into wet strands/locks, with a few loose flyaways at the crown; water crawls along individual strands and drips from the tips; the hair's overall movement is heavy and sluggish, never light or silky.

Clothing: every fabric reads as "soaked version of itself" — the Spider-Man suit's stretch fabric texture is visible where it clings to the shoulders and limbs; the web pattern is clearly defined but muted by rain and low light; the red and blue panels are soaked darker; water beads and runs across the suit surface; integrated gloves and boot coverings are darkened and slick with rain; folds hang heavy and wet.

Stone: rough, pitted masonry covered in a flowing water film, the pits darker, marked with mineral streaks carved by a century of rain.

Physics
Realistic rain ballistics everywhere: terminal-velocity rain streaks, tiny splash-crowns on impact, laterally drifting rain curtains — all layers sharing the same wind vector, rising and falling together. Wet hair and wet clothing move as heavy, water-laden mass, with drag — no dry, airy flutter. Breathing reads from the chest and shoulders; a faint white breath-mist on exhale. Lightning volumetrically lights the interior of the clouds along with the rain curtain — no hard lens flare. There is no dry air anywhere; the rain doesn't belong only to the body, rain never passes through the body without contact, nothing floats.

Lighting
One lighting system covers everything: overcast storm ambient light, cold and directionless, deep blue-gray; the pale rift provides the only faint directional accent — a dim cool edge on the upper silhouette and the top of the finial — and backlights the rain in the upper half of the frame, turning the falling drops into visible pale streaks. The subject is dark: exposed for the storm, the face readable but moody, shadows just barely retaining detail. Lightning: a brief silver-blue overall wash, covering the subject, the stone, and the rain simultaneously. City glow: a faint, warm-neutral glimmer, confined strictly to the bottom of the frame, churning in the mist, never touching the subject. No golden light, no orange, no warm key light, no artificial rim light, no beauty exposure.

Sound
An unbroken wall of heavy rain — white-noise rain overlaid with clear nearby drips and splashes on stone; wind gusting against the mic, intensifying with the gust at 0:04; distant rolling thunder, with two closer cracks roughly following the two lightning flashes; water running down the stone; slow, deep breathing underlying everything. No music, no dialogue, no subtitles.

Style
Pentax 645 medium-format photographic quality: natural, painterly tonality, dense circular bokeh (not stretched), gentle micro-contrast, rich and true color, fine authentic film grain structure. No anamorphic widescreen compression, no horizontally stretched highlights, no barrel distortion — restrained, classic medium-format stillness.

Quality
Focus locked on the face and the texture of the wet stone beneath; rain streaks sharp on the focal plane, softening in near-foreground and distant mist; clouds and city glow retain natural atmospheric softness. Even fine grain, no digital noise, no sharpening halos, no vignette beyond natural falloff. No ghosting, no duplicated limbs, no motion blur beyond the real rain/wind and the single head turn.

Positive constraints
Falling rain must be visible in every region of every frame — in front of the sky, in front of the clouds, in front of and behind the silhouette, over the city glow, splashing on stone — for the full 8 seconds. Forbidden: dry backgrounds, rain that exists only running on the body, pauses in rainfall, static sky.

Pose law: both feet flat, heels grounded, planted at the edge of the finial, hip-width apart; full deep squat, hips near heels; both forearms resting on top of the knees, hands hanging relaxed — all of this completely fixed for the full 8 seconds; the only movement of the body is the one calm 45° head turn at 0:03. Strict 90° profile for the first three seconds, then 45° toward the camera afterward — never fully facing the camera, never looking at the camera. Heels never lift, hands never press against anything.

The subject is fused into the scene: deep-dark, cold-toned, low-saturation, lit only by the storm; rain and mist pass in front of the silhouette; no pasted-on look, no independent lighting, no cutout edges.

The environment never freezes: clouds drifting, the rift pulsing, city lights flickering, rain curtains sweeping, wind gusting — continuous throughout.

Facial identity and profile geometry 100% from image_1. Gender presentation 100% from image_1. Clothing must be the gender-appropriate unmasked Spider-Man suit described above. Scene, color tone, and finial 100% from this prompt description, plus full-frame rainfall added. Zero drift throughout.

Camera completely locked off. The subject is the only person in frame. No text, no logos, no watermarks.
