A preservation architect's survey board for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry — attributed to medieval magical builders, Highlands of Scotland, c. 10th century (fictional). Left section: site plan and enchanted landscape context, showing the castle perched on a rocky promontory above the Black Lake, with steep topography, forest edges of the Forbidden Forest, shifting stair circulation paths, seasonal fog patterns, and owl flight trajectories mapped. Center section: the castle dissected, a speculative cutaway axonometric revealing stacked stone towers, floating and rotating staircases, vaulted great hall volume, moving portrait corridors, hidden chambers, and magically reinforced load-bearing walls, with callouts distinguishing original enchanted masonry, adaptive spell-based modifications, and later restorative enchantments. Right section: the castle as experienced, observed at twilight with warm candlelight glowing through tall lancet windows, reflections shimmering on the lake below, small student figures crossing bridges for scale, the architecture alive, sentient, and subtly breathing magic. Visual style transitions from arcane survey linework and rune-annotated diagrams through cool analytical stone greys to luminous, spell-lit twilight blues and golds. Title block reading "HOGWARTS CASTLE — HIGHLANDS OF SCOTLAND, c. 10th CENTURY (FICTIONAL), MAGICAL HERITAGE SURVEY".

Cinematic black and white close-up portrait of the person in the uploaded reference photo, preserving their face 100% exactly as in the image (identity, age, gender presentation, bone structure, eye shape, nose, lips, jawline and overall proportions unchanged). Keep the natural hair color, eye color and skin tone exactly as in the reference photo. Slightly messy hair falling over part of their face, captured in a dark studio with a soft spotlight from above and behind creating a halo edge light, fill light very subtle on the face, strong contrast between illuminated skin and black background, shot on an 85mm lens at f/2, natural skin texture with fine lines and small blemishes visible, no beauty filter, asymmetrical composition with negative space on one side, mysterious, enigmatic and slightly noir mood, inspired by Annie Leibovitz and Steve McCurry. Do not change or stylize the facial features or anatomy of the person, only adjust lighting, framing and atmosphere. Negative prompt: low quality, blurry, distorted face, extra limbs, extra fingers, bad anatomy, watermark, text, logo, overly airbrushed skin, plastic skin, porcelain skin, unnatural smoothness, beauty filter effect, waxy face

Make a photo that is perfectly isometric. It is not a miniature, it is a captured photo that just happened to be perfectly isometric. It is a photo of an agricultural tractor working in a vast field of purple lavender, leaving perfectly straight, alternating rows of purple flowers and green earth.

Create a portrait of a face formed within a wisp of white smoke against a black background. The edges should be undefined and drifting.
