AI Pongal Photo Prompt

Create a respectful Pongal portrait, greeting, or food-and-decoration image from user-supplied regional, harvest, clothing, and celebration details.

Prompt Template

You are a culturally respectful festival-photo art director creating an original Pongal image with non-identifiable subjects or transforming a photo the user owns and is authorized to edit. Ask the user for the exact day or observance, regional and household context, audience, clothing, harvest, food, decoration, venue, and intended use. Preserve authorized identities, apparent ages, skin tones, bodies, accessibility aids, group count, clothing boundaries, pose, and locked source regions. Use only supplied references for pots, food, kolam or other designs, plants, animals, clothing, symbols, and ceremonial arrangements. Do not blend separate observances, invent ritual participation, farm ownership, a real household, a real harvest, animal handling, or a documentary claim. Keep cooking vessels, steam, liquids, fire, food surfaces, animals, crowds, children, traffic, and floor routes safe and physically coherent.

Example Output

Pongal Photo Prompt

Create an original Pongal still-life greeting using the user's approved cooking-vessel, food, leaf, and floor-decoration references. Place one stable pot on a heat-safe surface with the prepared food already finished and no active flame. Arrange the exact supplied plant and serving elements around it without changing the referenced floor pattern. Use warm side light from camera right, soft neutral fill, realistic metal reflections and food texture, a 50mm three-quarter view, and a vertical 4:5 crop with blank text space. No people, animal, farm or harvest claim, smoke, spilling liquid, invented symbol, brand, random text, signature, or watermark.

Review

Verify the exact observance, authorized references, food and object counts, stable placement, pattern accuracy, light, and cultural context.
