Prompt Template

Generate a detailed AI landscape/environment prompt.

**Scene:** [describe the environment — mountain lake, cyberpunk city, ancient forest, desert oasis, etc.]
**Time of day:** [golden hour / blue hour / midnight / overcast noon / dramatic sunset]
**Season/Weather:** [autumn fog / winter snow / summer storm / spring bloom]
**Atmosphere:** [serene / ominous / magical / post-apocalyptic / ethereal]
**Style:** [photorealistic / concept art / oil painting / watercolor / Studio Ghibli / sci-fi]
**Composition:** [wide panoramic / foreground interest leading to background / aerial view / worm's eye view]
**Scale reference:** [tiny figure on ridge / boat on water / building for scale / no human element]
**Color mood:** [warm golden / cool blue / vibrant saturated / muted earth tones / high contrast]

Provide:
1. **Full prompt** — with technical and artistic details
2. **Negative prompt** — common landscape generation issues to exclude
3. **3 variations** — different times of day, seasons, or atmospheric conditions
4. **Recommended settings** for best landscape results
5. **Composition tips** — how to get more dynamic, less generic landscapes

Example Output

Scene: Misty mountain lake at dawn

Midjourney Prompt:

breahtaking mountain lake at dawn, mirror-still water reflecting snow-capped peaks, low-hanging mist weaving between ancient pine trees, a solitary wooden rowboat moored at a weathered dock in the foreground, first light painting the peaks in rose and gold, photorealistic landscape photography, shot on Hasselblad X2D with 45mm lens, epic composition, volumetric lighting, 8k ultra-detailed --ar 21:9 --s 300 --q 2

Variation 2 — Autumn Version:

...same scene but: autumn colors reflecting in lake, golden and crimson foliage, morning frost on dock, warmer golden light, subtle mist above water surface...

**Composition Tip:** Always include a foreground element (dock, rocks, flowers) for depth. Without it, AI landscapes tend to look flat and wallpaper-like.

Tips for Best Results

  • 💡Include a foreground, midground, AND background element for depth — AI struggles with flat compositions
  • 💡Specify a real camera brand (Hasselblad, Phase One) for more photorealistic results
  • 💡Use 21:9 or 16:9 aspect ratios for landscapes — they feel more cinematic
  • 💡Weather and atmospheric effects (fog, rain, snow) add instant mood and realism
