Elder Nomad Portrait in Mhamid Desert

A striking, hyperrealistic portrait of an elderly Moroccan nomadic man in the Mhamid desert (Erg Chigaga) during golden hour. He wears traditional attire: a weathered djellaba cloak, a handwoven melhafa shawl, and a layered turban wrapped to shield him from sun and sand. His face is deeply lined with copper-toned skin, a salt-and-pepper beard, and intelligent, weathered eyes that tell a lifetime of journeys. Wind-swept dust clings to his robes; the backdrop features rolling crimson dunes, distant tents, and faint silhouettes of a camel caravan beneath a warm amber sky. Shot with an 85mm lens, shallow depth of field (f/2.8), high dynamic range, and cinematic lighting to emphasize rich textures of fabric, leather, and weathered skin. Rich desert color palette, tactile detail, and a sense of quiet dignity in the moment.
