Create an image of a subway portrait that captures either one person, a couple, or a small group of correct people in a realistic setting. The centerpiece of this photograph is the subway photo concept carried through the picture, showing authenticity of what the subway portrait is all about, including natural features, relaxed poses, realistic microstructure of skin, realistic hairstyle, hands and proportions, and correct catchlights. The lights can be of soft direction or good ambient lights. Be realistic using the shadows, color grading, fabric, and anything in the environment. The best way to take the photograph is to use an 85mm f/1.4 portrait lens and a shallow depth of field with the full-frame camera, showing realistic optical falloff and a natural amount of noise in the photograph. The person in the photo should look like the person in the reference photograph.
