Close-Up B&W Lion Portrait: Regal Mane and Gaze

A hyper-detailed close-up black and white portrait of a majestic lion. Emphasize the regal mane and piercing, intense gaze. Dramatic chiaroscuro lighting from the upper left creates deep shadows and crisp highlights along the fur, with fine grain reminiscent of classic film. The eyes are in sharp focus, reflecting light to convey determination; whiskers and nose are textured, and individual fur strands are clearly defined. Composition is a tight head-and-shoulders shot, three-quarter view with the mane framing the face, background softly blurred or pure black to isolate the subject. Monochrome, high-contrast, ultra-realistic fur texture to evoke a cinematic, timeless wildlife portrait.
