Portrait of middle aged man in navy polo shirt indoors

Prompt

Portrait of a middle-aged man with short graying hair and beard standing indoors with intense gaze directed toward camera.

Subject: Muscular middle-aged man with short graying hair and full beard, intense serious expression, confident relaxed demeanor

Clothing: Dark navy blue polo shirt tucked in slightly at waist revealing defined arm muscles

Accessories: Multiple black beaded bracelets on left wrist, classic analog watch with brown leather strap

Action: Standing still facing forward with intense direct gaze into lens, hands resting naturally near hips with wrists crossed loosely

Environment: Indoor space featuring blurred background elements including large window letting soft natural light through, green plant visible behind subject to left side adding organic texture, neutral tones of interior walls with furniture pieces and shelves holding decorative items creating depth, architectural lines like doorframe edges naturally framing scene

Camera: Portrait composition with subject prominently centered, shallow depth-of-field effect with selective bokeh blur applied to background objects enhancing subject prominence

Lighting: Soft diffused daylight illuminating face evenly while casting gentle shadows across shoulders and chest enhancing three-dimensional form, warm ambient glow primarily from left-side window source creating subtle highlights on skin and clothing folds without harsh glare.

Description

This prompt is useful for creating fitness editorial features, corporate headshots requiring gravitas, and lifestyle portraits emphasizing maturity. The combination of 'soft diffused daylight' illuminating the face evenly while casting gentle shadows across shoulders enhances three-dimensional form, which supports the serious expression needed for both professional and athletic contexts by avoiding flat lighting.

Suggestions

Change 'dark navy blue polo shirt' to 'charcoal merino wool sweater' for a more elevated texture.
Add '85mm lens, f/2.
0' to intensify the shallow depth-of-field effect.
