Prompt

Use the attached image as facial reference. Preserve the model's exact face, skin tone and bone structure in the output. 

A female sprinter exploding out of the starting blocks — body at 45-degree angle, every muscle engaged, expression of pure raw focus. Minimal athletic kit in deep crimson and black. Shot like a Nike campaign — single hard directional strobe from the side creating razor-sharp shadows across every muscle. Background: dark track, crowd completely blurred to color smear. Frozen at 1/8000s — individual muscle fibers visible, fabric compression sharp, starting block dust mid-air. Cinematic color grade: warm highlights, crushed blacks, slight desaturation. Ultra-photorealistic, commercial athletic photography at its highest level. NOT sports news photo. 300mm telephoto compressed, film grain. 4:5.
