Morning Black Cat Street Walk

Create a photorealistic low-angle street photograph of {argument name="cat color" default="a black cat"} walking confidently toward the camera during an early morning neighborhood stroll. The cat is centered slightly right of frame, full body visible, one front paw raised mid-step, glossy fur catching warm rim light, bright green-yellow eyes looking alert to the left, upright ears, visible whiskers, and a long shadow stretching toward the viewer across textured asphalt. The setting is a quiet narrow residential lane in Japan with low concrete block walls on both sides, traditional house roofs and utility poles in the distance, and a tall dense hedge of shiny green leaves filling the right side. The sun is low near the left horizon, creating golden backlighting, lens flare, soft haze, sparkling highlights on the road, and long morning shadows. Use a wide-angle lens close to ground level, shallow-to-moderate depth of field with the cat sharp and the distant houses softly blurred, natural colors, high dynamic range, crisp asphalt texture, calm seasonal atmosphere, no people, no vehicles, no text, no watermark.
