Cinematic Street Photography Film Still Prompt

A Nano Banana Pro prompt structured for generating an ultra-photorealistic, candid street photography scene, specifically set in Eminönü, Turkey, during the early morning fog. It uses detailed camera language (35mm, eye-level, imperfect framing) and negative prompts to achieve a raw, cinematic documentary feel, focusing on a micro-action moment.
