A realistic street-photography fashion image captured 'across the street' in Mexico City, late spring 2025, early morning. The first light spills over colonial facades in Roma Norte, washing the street in pale gold and soft blue shadow. A young poet leans against a lamppost, lost in a pocket-sized notebook, cigarette unlit between their fingers. Their style is understated yet magnetic — a white linen button-up half-tucked into dark rust corduroy pants, black boots worn smooth at the toes, and a tan leather satchel resting at their side. Their posture carries a gentle stillness, the kind that belongs to early risers and quiet thinkers. The air glows at 5400 K, slightly cool, the city just waking: dogs barking, cafés grinding beans, pigeons scattering above. Captured on a Leica M11 with Summicron 35 mm f/2 ASPH at f/2.2, 1/500 s, 14-bit dynamic range, ultra-high 70 MP detail, soft vignetting, faint Portra grain, and delicate halation tracing the poet’s silhouette against the tender dawn.
