Create a photo-realistic image of a futuristic robotic tiger-motorbike hybrid, designed entirely out of chrome, steel, and advanced mechanical components. The creature-machine fusion is in mid-motion, moving toward the viewer at a 3/4 angle, with visible gears, piston-actuated limbs, glowing energy conduits, and overlapping segmented plating. Its mechanical legs are exaggerated in size and extended outward as if about to pounce, adding tension and kinetic realism. Mounted atop the mech is the uploaded woman , no crucifix, as a cyberpunk woman dressed in a sleek teal jacket and shorts and wearing turquoise shoes. She leans forward with focus, hands gripping the controls embedded in the creature’s shoulder armor, posture angled aggressively. A large matte-black tactical backpack clings to her back, suggesting she's in transit or on a mission. The viewer is scaled to only 1/4 inch tall, making the mech-animal hybrid appear towering and overwhelming. The mechanical belly and undercarriage are partially tilted toward the viewer, revealing hydraulic systems, central reactor cores, and internal cabling. Chrome panels reflect the ambient city light, creating a dazzling mix of motion and detail. The background is a cinematic blur of a futuristic street scene, with neon signage and crowd movement adding environmental depth. Motion blur is applied subtly to the extremities and tail elements to suggest speed. Lighting emphasizes reflection, shadow contouring, and tech glows across the body. Avoid cartoonish exaggeration—this is a polished biomechanical predator built for speed, precision, and impact. hyper-realistic, photorealistic with no cartoon, anime, CGI, or painted effect.

Create an image for me that fits DIN A4. A beautiful woman with an african background. It should be a portrait in black and white – creative – surreal – abstract – with a reference to migration. Feel free to play with motion blur (but not too much – perhaps a subtle motion blur). The motif should be darker. The background should be light. Magazine editorial style. And please only the person. No other motifs. (The portrait will later be edited with a coloured background and text will be added – but I will do that myself). In photography, there are various rules and techniques for improving image composition, including the rule that people in the image should not look out of the frame. This is often considered part of image composition, as it is intended to draw the viewer's attention to the most important elements in the image. If a person is looking at the edge of the image, this can often create a feeling of incompleteness and distract the viewer from the main focus. A common practice is to position the person so that they are looking into the image rather than out of it. This creates a connection between the subject and the viewer and can enhance the emotional impact of the image. For example, if a person is looking to the left, the focus of the image should be on leaving enough space on the right side of the image to show the movement of the gaze. This technique goes hand in hand with other photographic rules, such as the rule of thirds or the golden ratio, which serve to harmonise the composition and increase visual interest. Only the person! No animals! No motion blur in the face!

A divine and ethereal depiction of Lord Shiva, standing fiercely in a desolate volcanic landscape, surrounded by jagged black rocks and molten rivers of lava. His presence is both mesmerizing and formidable, embodying the untamed force of nature. Shiva's stance is dynamic and intense—one foot planted firmly on scorched ground, his muscular torso twisted with arms spread wide in a commanding pose of defiance and power. His glowing, third eye radiates an intense, fiery light, symbolizing destruction and transformation. Shiva's ash-smeared body is partially clad in tattered, burnt fabric that clings to him in charred strips, smoldering at the edges as embers flicker along the seams. The scorched remains of his attire expose much of his muscular frame, adding to his raw, untamed aura. Ash and soot streak his skin, blending with smudges of sacred vibhuti (holy ash), accentuating his divine presence. Molten lava flows from his fierce, unblinking third eye like a river of glowing fire, streaming down his forehead and face, illuminating his sharp features with a brilliant red-orange glow. The molten flow radiates intense heat, distorting the air around him and sending smoky trails upward like a fiery aura. The volcanic ground pulses with fiery veins of lava beneath the surface, casting a dim, red glow that reflects through the low-lying mist and smoke swirling at his feet. In the background, towering cliffs of jagged black rock stand under a stormy sky, with faint embers drifting through the air like sparks from a cosmic fire. Above Shiva’s head, a radiant golden trident (Trishul) glows with divine energy, surrounded by orbiting symbols of ancient wisdom, including Sanskrit mantras, sacred geometric patterns, and mystical yantras. The symbols pulse rhythmically with Shiva’s energy, casting a powerful aura of cosmic knowledge and spiritual strength. The air is filled with drifting embers and glowing particles, swirling like fiery snowflakes, their motion enhanced by the shimmering heat rising from the molten earth.
