Noir Detective in a Clockwork City

Photorealistic detective in a rain-soaked, clockwork city. A weathered trench coat and fedora, leather gloves, and a subtly gleaming revolver at the hip. He stands under a gaslamp on a brass-and-steel street, magnifying glass in one gloved hand, notebook in the other. Surrounding him are towering clock towers and a skyline built from gears, riveted copper pipes, steam vents, and hovering mechanical drones. The city buzzes with turning gears, pistons, and steam wisps. Wet cobblestones reflect amber street light and cold blue neon, creating a dramatic noir mood. High realism, rich textures on fabric, leather, brass, and metal, with a cinematic low-angle perspective that emphasizes the vast clockwork metropolis looming over the detective.
