Copy & paste

Create a hyper-realistic, emotional birthday scene. On the left: a child version of me (from a childhood photo), looking to the right with an innocent smile. Add the year "2008" above. On the right: a present version of me (from a recent photo), sitting with hands under the chin, looking at the child with a calm smile. Add the year "2026" above. In the center: a table with a simple, elegant birthday cake with the number 23 on top. Background: plain soft studio background. Lighting: soft, cinematic, warm tones (optional black-and-white variation). Style: professional, minimal, emotional photography focusing on connection between past and present. Ensure facial features remain accurate and unchanged. Make it ultra-realistic, like a real photoshoot. Aspect ratio: 4:5
