Prompt

A surrealist, highly photorealistic upper body portrait of {argument name="subject" default="a young man/woman with specific features"}, standing in a sunny city street. Five identical heads of the same person are stacked vertically like a tall totem pole rising from the shoulders. Each head has a different size, unique facial expression, and is tilted at a different angle. Strong, directional sunlight hits the figures from the side, casting deep, realistic volumetric shadows between the stacked heads and onto the torso, defining their three-dimensional form. Highly detailed skin texture is visible, avoiding a plastic look. The urban architectural background is slightly blurred with realistic bokeh, showing depth. Cinematic lighting, high-end fashion photography aesthetic, believable environmental integration.
