White rooster with bright red comb standing in shallow foamy surf on a pebbly beach
A white rooster with a vivid red comb and wattle stands calmly in shallow shoreline surf, surrounded by smooth weathered pebbles. Soft bright hazy daylight illuminates the whimsical scene, with blurred ocean waves and a distant coastal rock stack rendered out of focus. The serene, dreamy shot uses shallow depth of field to highlight the rooster against a soft pale neutral coastal backdrop.

AI Model: gpt-image-2-low

Prompt: Saul Leiter + Richard Avedon, where Leiter's soft focus lens work creates diffused atmospheric edges through wide aperture shooting, and Avedon's high key portrait lighting produces clipped luminous highlights via deliberate overexposure. The fusion manifests as selective sharpness with creamy bokeh, blown out bright zones, and soft value transitions, transforming any subject through airy high key exposure. rooster at the seashore
