1boy, solo, tall slender man, fair skin, golden eyes, slit pupils, jet black hair, long hair, lighter hair streaks, high ponytail, long dark coat, gold trim, red lining, gloves, stone ornaments, standing, from below, cowboy shot, dutch angle, looking to the side, one hand raised, spread fingers, open hand, wind, low sun, dusk,
From a low dutch angle, the tall slender man fills a cowboy-shot frame cut at mid-thigh, the camera tilted about twelve degrees so the horizon of a bare stone terrace runs off-level behind his hip; he stands with his weight on his back leg, front knee eased forward, torso turned a three-quarter to the camera, and his right arm lifted to chest height with the gloved hand open and fingers spread, palm turned to the wind, testing it. His skin is fair and cool in the low light; the wet-gold irises of his eyes are ringed with dark limbal lines and lit from the side, and his gaze is thrown past the frame's left edge at something off-screen, chin slightly lifted, one eyebrow drawn a fraction higher than the other, mouth closed and flat, an expression of quiet appraisal rather than a smile. His jet-black hair is gathered at the back of the skull and bound into a high ponytail that whips sideways off his right shoulder, and through the black run pale ash-grey streaks that catch the light as separate bright strands; loose short strands at his temple and the nape move with the same wind, so the whole head of hair leans one direction against a hand raised into it. His long dark coat is charcoal-black wool, cut narrow at the waist and flared from hip to hem, and the hem lifts and snaps at his calves; gold piping traces the front placket and the cuff seams, and the coat's turned-open top edge shows a deep wine-red lining that is also red at the collar guards. Dark leather gloves cover both hands, the left hooked loosely around a length of his own coat belt, the right still open in the air; on the back of the right glove and at the coat's shoulder sit flat-set ornaments of carved stone -- grey-green discs with a ring pattern, heavy and matte, the kind that drags a fold down under its weight -- and a matched stone clasp closes the collar at his throat. Behind him the terrace runs to a low parapet of worn grey stone; the low sun at frame right is the only light source, striking the left side of his face, his gloved fingers and the coat's gold piping while the right half of him falls into a cool blue-grey shadow thrown long and slanted across the ground behind his heel; the sky beyond is a flat dusty amber grading to slate, and no cloud carries a highlight. Palette: charcoal black, wine red, wet gold, ash grey and the amber air, nothing else admitted. He is caught mid-decision, holding the wind's answer. Quiet resolve.
