Промт для реставрации и колоризации советских фото 1970-1980-х годов

Perform meticulous non-destructive restoration and colorization of this aged photograph. Restore, enhance, and colorize to maximum technical quality — crisp, noise-free, full of detail. Add historically accurate colors. Output MUST have the EXACT same aspect ratio as the input.

Colorize the EXISTING photograph using ORWO Color NC / SVEMA 130 color palette: this 1970s-1980s Soviet film stock features moderate saturation, natural warm-neutral skin tones, slightly cool midtones, and muted but grounded greens and earth tones.

DAMAGE MAP: Remove the white border, tears, and physical creases along the top edge. Eliminate the heavy horizontal grain and micro-scratches throughout the center. Fix the fading on the right side and upper corners where detail is washed out.

1. BACKGROUND & ENVIRONMENT: Restore the dense forest setting with extreme precision. Colorize the tall coniferous trees with muted deep greens and the bark with natural browns and greys. Recover the texture of the distant foliage and vertical trunks. Ensure the sunlight filtering through the trees has a natural, warm-neutral glow without blooming. The grass and dirt clearing must show individual blades and soil texture with varied, moderate greens and earth tones.

2. FOREGROUND OBJECTS: Restore the stump the woman is sitting on, showing clear wood grain and moss texture. The small wildflowers/white clover scattered in the grass must be distinct and sharp, not blurry white blobs.

3. CLOTHING: For the woman, restore the polka-dot pattern on her dress with crisp edges. Colorize the dress in a soft blue or green with white dots, preserving the fabric drape and stitching. For the child, restore the shorts and shirt, identifying fabric texture and colorizing in complementary muted tones like beige or navy. Restore the woman’s sandals to show strap detail and natural leather/rubber color.

4. EDGES & CORNERS: Apply identical restoration and colorization quality to all four corners. Fix the light leak/fading on the right edge to match the rest of the forest depth. 

5. FACES & SKIN: Restore natural skin texture without airbrushing. Use a warm-neutral Soviet skin tone—neither orange nor ghostly white. Preserve the natural expression of the woman and child, ensuring eye iris detail and hair strands (dark brown/black) are sharp and distinct.

WARNING: You have a natural bias toward faces. COMPENSATE—apply extra restoration and colorization effort to background, clothing, and foreground. Background must be as sharp, detailed, and richly colorized as any face in the image. Natural analog-film palette—moderate saturation, warm-neutral tones. ALL areas processed with EQUAL quality.

ANTI-BIAS ALERT: You naturally focus restoration/colorization on FACES while leaving background, clothing, and foreground under-processed. This is the #1 quality failure. Consciously counteract this.

MANDATORY UNIFORM QUALITY CHECK:
- Background sharpness = Face sharpness (NOT less)
- Clothing detail = Face detail (fabric weave, buttons fully visible)
- Foreground objects = Faces (flowers, grass, objects NOT blurry)
- Edges/corners = Center of image (NOT softer or less restored)
Any area less sharp or colorized than faces is a FAILURE — redo that area.

ABSOLUTE RULES — NEVER VIOLATE:
- QUALITY + REPAIR MODE: enhance technical quality (remove noise/grain, apply uniform sharpening, improve dynamic range) uniformly across the ENTIRE image, AND repair physical damage. The goal is the same photo at maximum possible quality — as if shot with a modern camera
- CONTENT LOCK: do NOT change people, objects, composition, style, or era. Same scene, same identity — just technically better. Sharper, cleaner, noise-free everywhere
- DO NOT recreate, reimagine, or regenerate any part of the scene — work only with what is already in the photo
- DO NOT add, invent, or hallucinate any part of the image that is not in the original
- FACE RECONSTRUCTION FORBIDDEN: Do NOT rebuild, reconstruct, or regenerate any face. Ensure no artificially generated face replaces any original face in the photo. Pixel-level repair only — remove damage that covers a face, but never reconstruct the face itself
- DO NOT change, replace, or alter any person's face, body, or identity. 100% original subject identity and facial features must be preserved
- DO NOT change facial expression — mouth shape, lip curve, and overall expression must be IDENTICAL to the original
- DO NOT change eye gaze direction — eyes must look in the exact same direction as in the original photo
- SKIN TEXTURE: Apply frequency-separation logic — remove temporary surface damage (chemical stains, scratches, foxing) but strictly preserve all underlying skin texture: pores, fine lines, wrinkles, natural imperfections. Do NOT smooth the skin to a plastic finish
- INTENSITY: Apply strong, professional-grade quality enhancement uniformly. The goal is a noticeably better, sharper, cleaner result — not a barely-touched version of the original
- DO NOT add or remove any person or object
- DO NOT modernize clothing, hairstyles, or any visual elements. Preserve the original era, style, and visual aesthetic of the photo
- FILM GRAIN / NOISE = DEFECTS: Film grain, sensor noise, and age-related softness are technical defects to ELIMINATE — they are NOT authentic character to preserve. Remove them aggressively across the ENTIRE image
- ASPECT RATIO CRITICAL: Output must have the EXACT same aspect ratio as the input. DO NOT crop, add borders, expand canvas, or shift composition. Wrong aspect ratio = critical failure
- CANVAS SIZE: Output must have EXACTLY the same canvas dimensions as the input. DO NOT expand, add borders, or fill in areas outside the original photo boundaries. If the photo has torn/missing edges — keep them as-is or darken, but NEVER extend the canvas
- SHARPNESS: Every pixel of the output must be crisp and sharp. NO softness, NO blur, NO smoothing anywhere. Blurry output is a critical failure
- SKIN COLOR: Eastern European skin = warm-neutral to cool-neutral, medium tone. NEVER red or orange. NEVER ghostly pale or washed-out. NEVER airbrushed or plastic. DO NOT add acne, spots or marks not in the original
- COLOR SATURATION: Keep overall saturation MODERATE — natural analog film look. NOT vivid digital. NOT pale or desaturated`
- SKIN TONES: natural, warm, lifelike — NOT red, NOT orange, NOT pale/washed-out, NOT plastic/airbrushed
- DO NOT smooth, airbrush, or beautify faces — preserve ALL natural skin texture (pores, subtle imperfections)
- SATURATION: moderate and natural — like a real color photograph. NOT oversaturated, NOT pale/washed-out
- CONTRAST: moderate — natural tonal range, no HDR
- All colors natural and lifelike — real photograph look
- Apply uniform sharpness to the ENTIRE image — NO background blur
