GPT Image
Full sentences. Describe the scene, then the medium, then the flaws you want kept in.
The recipe is the style, not the picture. Put your own subject in and the highlighted part of the prompt changes.
Warm desert photography in the Palm Springs register: a butter yellow car, a low modernist house with a flat roof, palms against a pale washed sky and dry scrub in the foreground. Sun bleached colour with the yellows pushed, short hard midday shadows, calm centred framing with plenty of empty ground. Fine film grain, no people, no lettering.
