Expert Usage Tips
Adjust the focal length (e.g., 24mm for wider vistas or 85mm for compressed, intimate cloud details) to change the scale of the scene.
Incorporate specific color keywords like “monochromatic” or “triadic” to force the AI to adhere to a professional, cohesive color theory.
Use “volumetric lighting” or “global illumination” tags to enhance the sense of depth and atmospheric realism in your renders.
If the result is too busy, add “minimalist composition” or “negative space” to the beginning of your prompt for a cleaner aesthetic.
Experiment with time-of-day modifiers like “Blue Hour” or “Midday Sun” to drastically shift the mood of the dreamscape without changing the subject.
