Roofing is retired: a shingle grid under perspective exposes the model's geometry errors no matter how the prompt is written, and it failed twice. Tree service and landscaping replace it, chosen because foliage, grass, and mulch are organic textures that hide generation artifacts instead of exposing them. Both scenes are solo, absorbed, with the work's progress visible in frame.
One worker hauling one branch: a single clean contact, real effort, and the work's evidence built in (fresh cut marks on the tree, the brush pile growing at the curb). No chainsaw: bar-and-chain detail is an invented-machinery risk, and the drag reads as tree work without it.
Candid photograph on the front lawn of a suburban home, camera at chest height a few steps away. A tree-service worker in his thirties in a plain tan t-shirt and heavy work gloves drags a large leafy cut branch across the grass toward a brush pile at the curb, leaning into the pull with both hands on the limb, the branch's leaves sweeping a trail through the grass behind him. Behind him stands the tree being trimmed, two or three fresh pale cut marks visible on its lower trunk where limbs have been removed, and the brush pile at the curb already holds several cut branches. One man absorbed in honest effort, mid-stride. Hard late morning sun from camera left, crisp shadows across the lawn, the foliage bright and saturated. Real skin texture with pores and flyaway hairs, slight motion softness, gentle film grain, natural color, imperfect framing, no studio styling, nobody looking at camera. Do NOT include: a chainsaw or any power tool, a second person, any phone anywhere in frame, readable logos, brand marks, or company lettering, dust, stains, clutter, watermark text. No extra fingers, no warped hands, all shadows falling the same direction, every person fully clothed.
Kneeling at the bed, spreading mulch by hand, with the progress line visible: fresh dark mulch on the near half, bare soil on the far half. Work-state truth is the composition itself here. A woman, to keep the set's faces varied.
Candid photograph at a planting bed along the front of a suburban house, camera at chest height a few steps back. A landscaper in her twenties, hair tied back, in a plain olive t-shirt and work gloves, kneels at the edge of the bed spreading dark mulch around the base of a young shrub with both hands, absorbed in the work, a wheelbarrow half full of mulch standing on the lawn beside her. The bed is visibly mid-job: the half nearest her is neatly covered in fresh dark mulch, the far half is still bare turned soil waiting its turn. Bright overcast daylight, soft even shadows, colors saturated and true, the shrubs and lawn softly lit. Real skin texture with pores and flyaway hairs, slight motion softness, gentle film grain, natural color, imperfect framing, no studio styling, nobody looking at camera. Do NOT include: a fully finished bed, a second person, any phone anywhere in frame, readable logos, brand marks, or company lettering, dust on clothing, stains, clutter, watermark text. No extra fingers, no warped hands, every person fully clothed.
Generate in the Higgsfield UI (API/CLI costs 3x the credits). GPT Image 2, Quality High, ratio per chip. QA: progress evidence visible (cut marks and brush pile in T1, the mulch line in T2), hands at 200 percent zoom, one sun with agreeing shadows. These two plus the four keepers complete the set at six. Method and the full law list: web/generation/PHOTO-DIRECTION.md.
