Prompt (Original)

Create a hyper-real macro photograph of a tiny (CHARACTER) about 10–12 cm tall, gently held between a real human thumb and index finger or sitting on the fingertip. The character naturally touches the thumb for scale and holds (ACCESSORY). Studio setting with a soft grey gradient background, subtle bokeh. Skin, fabric and hair show micro-texture; add accurate contact shadows where fingers meet the character. Lighting: softbox at 45°, faint rim light on the far side; no harsh glare. Camera look: 100mm macro • f/2.8 • ISO 100 • 1/160s (shallow depth of field; eyes perfectly in focus). Hands look clean, natural anatomy, 5 fingers, realistic nails and pores. The character’s outfit is simple textured knit (dark grey) unless the identity demands otherwise; proportions and perspective must read real, not toy. Treat (CHARACTER) respectfully and keep likeness faithful if based on a real person. Composition: subject centered, from mid-torso up, with the thumb and index framing the character;

Kreative Details

Experience a breathtaking hyper-real macro photograph, featuring a meticulously crafted miniature character, approximately 10-12 cm tall. Delicately held between a human thumb and index finger, or perched on a fingertip, the subject exudes lifelike presence, often holding a distinct accessory. Every micro-texture – from the character's skin and simple knit outfit to the nuanced pores of the human hand – is rendered with stunning fidelity. Softbox lighting at 45° illuminates intricate details, enhanced by a faint rim light and accurate contact shadows, all set against a gentle grey gradient with subtle bokeh. The shallow depth of field, typical of a 100mm macro lens at f/2.8, ensures the character's eyes are perfectly in focus, creating an intimate, captivating portrait. This image celebrates scale, exquisite detail, and the delicate beauty of the miniature world, blurring the lines between fantasy and reality.
