Weathered Strength: A Life Unfolds

Close-up portrait of a weathered man in his late 50s, deep-set blue eyes with crow's feet, prominent cheekbones, and a strong jawline. Sun-weathered skin with a ruddy complexion, scattered age spots. Thick, graying stubble covers his lower face. Tousled salt-and-pepper hair, slightly receding hairline. Lean, sinewy build with broad shoulders and visible collar bones. Wearing a faded blue denim shirt, sleeves rolled up to reveal tanned, muscular forearms. Dark wash jeans, slightly frayed at the hems. Scuffed brown leather work boots with steel toes. Standing with a slight forward lean, one hand in pocket, the other holding a worn leather work glove. Expression is stoic yet determined, with a hint of weariness in the eyes. Thin lips pressed into a firm line. Background suggests a rural setting, with soft focus fields and a weathered wooden fence visible behind him. Warm, golden hour lighting casts long shadows and highlights the textures of his face and clothing.
