At the top of the Photorealistic picture taken from a camera image, place the text "Merry Christmas Dan and Frances" in warm white hand-lettered script with a subtle gold-foil shimmer and soft drop shadow so it pops over festive bokeh.

Ultra-high-definition 4K UHD, candid photojournalistic shot of a festive “holiday diplomacy” press briefing at the North Pole. Center frame: Santa in a perfectly tailored, textured velvet suit at a polished wood podium wrapped with a simple pine garland; two candy-cane striped microphones and a frosty glass of milk on the podium. To Santa’s right, a dignified snowman ambassador in a navy suit and knitted scarf leans in for a firm handshake, a wisp of cold vapor around him. To Santa’s left, a crystal-clear block of ice encasing shiny chocolate coins and a gingerbread piggy bank—“frozen assets” visual gag—glinting under the lights. Two smartly dressed elves stand nearby as aides, wearing tiny lapel pins shaped like the scales of justice and a dove, subtly nodding to human rights. The backdrop is a tasteful, UN-style blue with repeating snowflake emblems (no words), and a frosted-glass world map with tiny ribbon lines connecting continents for a lighthearted geopolitics vibe. A spruce tree trimmed with miniature neutral flags and snowflake ornaments glows softly in the corner. Foreground has out-of-focus press cameras and boom mics for realism. Lighting is accurate and cinematic: soft key from camera-left, gentle fill, warm fairy-light bokeh behind; lifelike textures in velvet, leather belt, ice, wood grain, and snow. Shot on a full-frame camera, 50mm lens, f/2.2, ISO 200, 1/125s, shallow depth of field with rich separation, natural skin tones (for Santa and elves), crisp details, no visible branding or real-world political logos.

Add a small, cheeky one-line caption at the bottom center in clean white sans-serif on a subtle semi-transparent red ribbon: “Season’s sanctions: assets frozen (literally).”
