Black panther frontal head study with golden iris detail

High-contrast photorealistic composition employing dramatic backlighting against near-black background. Subject positioned frontally with optical axis directed toward viewer. Iris coloration demonstrates golden-yellow chromatic value with catchlight reflection. Facial morphology exhibits felid features: bilateral symmetry, pronounced whisker arrays, nasal structure, fur texture rendered with millimeter precision. Lighting apparatus produces rim illumination defining auricular and facial contours. Chromatic rendering emphasizes achromatic primary tones with isolated warm wavelength concentration in ocular region.
