When @yug.bsky.social asked me which photo to use I remarked that my press photo is so old that I don't even have my moustache yet, he reassured me with 'I got you' and then sent me this for approval 30 minutes later.

It cost $0.00 to make an artist's day better
The image depicts a man in a suit in stylized, bright graphics.
The figure is rendered in rigid geometric shapes, with a predominance of yellow-green and dark orange tones creating a sharp contrast. The character wears a dark jacket with a bow tie and a shirt with vertical stripes. He wears round glasses.
In his hand, he holds a glass with a clear drink and straws, which gives the scene the atmosphere of an evening or social conversation.
Large palm leaves are visible in the background.The image depicts a stylish character drawn in a graphic, neon style.
This is a person with short hair combed to the side. The face is illuminated with cool tones, the eyes shine brightly blue, creating an effect of mystery and severity. The lips are painted with black lipstick, and a cigarette is clamped between the teeth, from which smoke is coming out.
The character's clothing resembles a strict business style with retro elements: a white and blue shirt with a geometric neckline, a dark corset or vest with suspenders, and a long dark jacket thrown over the shoulders. All this emphasizes an elegant, powerful, and somewhat predatory image.
The background is minimalistic, with a bright red circle and a white and red diagonal element, which gives the poster an almost propagandistic atmosphere.The image shows digital art in a neon style.
It depicts a woman with short dark hair, stern facial features, and glowing blue eyes. Her skin and clothing are illuminated with bright blue and purple hues, creating a futuristic and cosmic atmosphere.
She is dressed in a black outfit with shiny facets that resemble crystals or reflective material. Geometric shapes of light are visible on her shoulders and chest. She wears a necklace of black beads around her neck. The background of the image is a dark night sky studded with stars, with purple and blue streaks.
The image looks mysterious, powerful, and slightly cosmic.The image shows a stylish illustration of a woman in an evening gown. The work is done in a neon graphic style using rich shades of blue, red, and purple.

The woman stands at a balustrade under a starry night sky. Her image is elegant: short light hair, long gloves, and a dress with a high slit that emphasizes her figure. The background is decorated with large decorative plants illuminated by contrasting neon colors—blue and red.

The atmosphere of the scene is mysterious and cinematic, reminiscent of retro-futurism or noir art.
