Create an ultra-photorealistic cinematic recreation inspired by the viral Empire State Building proposal using the two uploaded reference photos.
IDENTITY PRESERVATION (CRITICAL):
Use the first reference as the male and the second reference as the female. Preserve their identities with absolute accuracy, including facial structure, skin tone, eye shape, hairstyle, facial hair, body proportions, age, expressions, and all distinguishing features. They must remain instantly recognizable as the people in the reference images.
SCENE:
The couple stands on the very top observation platform surrounding the Empire State Building antenna at sunrise, over 1,400 feet above New York City. The perspective should create a breathtaking sense of scale while remaining believable and physically accurate.
The male is kneeling on one knee, holding an open engagement ring box with a brilliant diamond catching the morning sunlight. His expression is filled with genuine anticipation and emotion.
The female stands in front of him with tears of joy, both hands covering her mouth in surprise. Her expression captures disbelief, happiness, and overwhelming emotion.
Behind them, a large white fabric banner waves naturally in the wind, reading:
"When the power of love beats the love of power, the world knows peace."
The fabric should have realistic folds, stitching, translucency, and dynamic movement.

Golden sunrise over Manhattan with warm orange and pink skies.
The entire New York City skyline stretches to the horizon.
