The Running Cottage Slides Into Home Plate
A long-legged cottage sprints onto the base, delivered with a transparent channel so you can drop it straight into any layout.
✍️ The key variable is the string of negations after alpha = 0: not a white background, not a colored one, no checkerboard. Stack all three exclusions and you finally get true transparency. The contact shadow is only described as darkest at the point of contact and fading outward, so the cutout won't float when pasted into another layout.

Surreal miniature sports photography in bright afternoon light, crisp focus across the whole scene, 16:9 wide composition. Side three-quarter view of a small pitched-roof cottage sprinting on two sturdy legs: the front shoe is planted squarely on a blank white home plate, the back leg kicks behind in mid-stride, and the front door and windows ride along on its moving walls. Give it cream plaster walls, a brown shingle roof, a blue front door and a white-and-red running shoe on each foot. Under the cottage and the plate, add a soft semi-transparent black contact shadow in the alpha channel, darkest where things touch and fading outward.
Deliver it as a real alpha channel on a fully transparent background (alpha = 0): no white fill, no colour fill, no checkerboard pattern. Keep the cottage and plate completely inside the frame with clear transparent margin on every side, nothing cropped or touching the borders.
No lettering anywhere. The plate is plain white rubber without a logo, the walls carry no house numbers or signs, and there are no stadium signs, scoreboards, uniforms or background surfaces.
