Realistic Friends Trip Selfie at Lake Ashi

A candid, smartphone-style travel selfie of {argument name="group size" default="five"} Japanese female college students standing closely together at the shore of {argument name="location" default="Lake Ashi, Hakone"}, shot at arm’s length with a slightly wide-angle front camera feel. They are grouped tightly shoulder-to-shoulder, smiling and making peace signs toward the camera, with a casual cheerful friends-on-a-trip mood. Their styling is realistic and contemporary, with dark brown to black medium-to-long hair, natural makeup, and soft autumn outfits in light neutral tones: cream and white knit sweaters, a blue denim jacket, and a black shoulder bag visible near the center-right. Behind them is a lakeside scenic background with calm blue water, distant mountains under a bright sky with scattered clouds, and a wooden tourist signboard on the right side that clearly includes the Japanese text {argument name="sign text" default="芦ノ湖"} and a smaller elevation marking reading 724M. Composition should look like an authentic social-media travel photo, slightly cropped at the edges as if one person is holding the phone from the left, with natural daylight, realistic skin tones, soft depth, and documentary-style photo realism. Include exactly {argument name="peace sign count" default="three"} visible peace-sign hand gestures. Make it feel like a believable group souvenir photo taken during a day trip in Japan.
