Tower block, late sun

Light: low warm late-afternoon sun from the upper left, flaring softly through a milky haze so the upper left of the facade glows and blooms, her face lit from the left with the right side in warm open shade. Moment: she stands still with her hands tucked behind her back, chin lifted, head tilted a touch, a cool calm look down into the lens. The woman from the reference, slim and graceful, dark chin-length bob with a soft fringe, tucked behind one ear on one side, one loose strand across her cheek, soft natural make-up: groomed brows, a hint of rosy colour on the lips and cheeks; an oversized rust-red chunky wool crewneck jumper with a thin cream mock-neck top showing at the collar, the sleeves long over her wrists, high-waisted wide sage-stone cotton trousers with a large patch pocket, brown leather loafers, no jewellery, no logo. Place: a white 1970s concrete tower block with rows of small windows, a dusty grey-blue 1960s saloon car without badges parked right behind her, a bare parking lot. Composition: camera at hip height close to her, looking steeply up; she fills the right half of the frame, cut at mid-thigh, her head at about the middle of the frame; the tower rises and converges steeply above her, the hazy glowing facade in the upper left third with nothing in it; the car roof behind her hips. Keep her face, hair and skin tone exactly as in the reference, but render the skin as on film, never as in the reference.
