Reference image required

Please turn each uploaded photo into an independent high-end design poster, do not stitch images together, output each photo separately. Use a 3:4 vertical composition, split into two halves like a folded card, with the fold line exactly on the horizontal centerline, both halves equal height, do not draw the fold line itself.

Top half retains the original photo, preserving subject identity, structure, pose, realistic texture, natural lighting, and original color atmosphere, only applying slight high-end color grading to give it an art magazine, indie publication, and exhibition image quality. To fit the aspect ratio, naturally extend the environment background but do not stretch, distort, or change the subject; crop as panorama, leave sky above the subject's head, do not crop the top. No text in the top half, all text appears only in the bottom half.

Bottom half extracts only the most recognizable **subject, outline, structure, pose, and narrative relationships** from the photo, reconstructing them as a **Flat Silhouette Still Life on a Dark Ground**. Do not copy the photo completely, but compress the subject and a few adjacent items into flat silhouettes without outlines or internal details, making the correspondence with the top photo immediately identifiable. **Must have several unoutlined flat silhouettes overlapping into a cluster standing on a solid dark background, with only one block noticeably brightest, popping out as if lit**, this defines the style, missing it fails.

Bottom half requires new artistic judgment. Even if the original has poor composition, messy background, or small subject, save it by **removing environment, converting to front/side view, moving scattered items close into a cluster**; arrange silhouettes of varying heights staggered, as if quietly placed on an invisible surface. If the photo is a scene (street, corridor, landscape, interior), take only the most representative single object or fragment, do not draw the rest, do not draw the whole scene.

Form focuses on **unoutlined front/side silhouette blocks**: each shape expressed with one color block, soft edges with slight hand-cut undulations, almost no internal structure, only using darker same-color small blocks where necessary to indicate openings, gaps, or turns. People, animals, buildings, objects, plants, and landscapes are unified into flat front or side silhouettes, depth read only through occlusion and color shade, no perspective or projection.

Texture is **fine dry-brush gouache granules**: dark background and each silhouette covered with very fine powdery speckles, making color surfaces soft and slightly velvety; stop here, no scratches, stains, folds, or aging effects.

Composition uses **a medium-sized silhouette cluster + large dark negative space**. Bottom half drawn as **panorama**, as if photographer stepped back, subject complete with empty space around, smaller than intuition suggests; **leave sky** above subject, like mounting header wider than footer, nothing touches the central fold. Silhouette cluster slightly off-center, base line on invisible horizontal, other side left for text. Prefer things quietly crowded together rather than spread across the canvas.

Color extracted from the top photo's most emotional hues, remixed into **deep ground plus low-saturation pink-grey blocks**: darkest photo color further dimmed keeping some hue as majority background; other colors desaturated mixed with grey/white becoming soft pink-grey blocks; only one block lifted brightest near warm-white, sole highlight. Adjust warmth/coolness per photo, avoid pure black, high saturation, and gradients.

Text minimal editorial intervention, any language, no fixed title. Only one short name or word taken from specific things, places, actions, or details in the photo, no subtitles or second lines; text very small, much smaller than subject, using **thin serif uppercase glyphs** in dark space beside silhouette cluster, color one shade lighter than brightest, separated by quiet distance. No generic inspirational slogans.

Overall like a still life illustration in indie publication or art postcard: dark ground, unoutlined silhouettes, overlapping layers, one bright color plane and thin small text composing quiet, warm, slightly nocturnal atmosphere.

Avoid full scene replication, filled backgrounds, cartoonish feel, template poster look, avoid isolated silhouettes, adding outlines, multiple equally bright blocks without focus, 3D lighting, vivid candy colors, and overly neat vector edges.
