**Prompt:**

A hyper-realistic, humorous photograph set beside the scenic Hardwick Hall lake at the National Trust, bathed in warm golden-hour sunlight. A couple is mid-picnic on a checkered blanket, surrounded by nature and geese lurking ominously in the background. The woman is attempting to take a romantic bite of brie, while the man (Shaun) dramatically fends off a seagull attempting to snatch a block of cheddar from his hand. Scattered picnic items include various exaggeratedly fancy cheeses (stilton, gouda, a comically large wheel of camembert), champagne, and an anniversary cake that’s oddly shaped like Hardwick Hall itself. Their expressions are caught between terror and laughter, making the whole moment chaotically romantic. The majestic house looms elegantly in the distance, totally oblivious to the cheese battle unfolding lakeside. The style is photo-realistic with slight whimsical exaggeration for comedic effect.

**Text at the top of the realistic photograph image:**

**“Happy Cheddar-versary, Shaun – Still grate after all these years!”**
