Tips
- 1Experiment with TIME OF DAY to drastically change the mood of your ocean scene; 'Golden Hour' for warmth, 'Midnight' for mystery, 'Overcast' for drama.
- 2Combine different VISUAL STYLE parameters, such as 'Watercolor Illustration' with 'Photorealistic Elements,' to create unique, mixed-media ocean art.
- 3Utilize specific marine life in your SUBJECT(S) like 'Humpback Whale breaching,' 'Schools of Tropical Fish,' or 'Ancient Sea Turtle' to add focal points and narrative.
- 4Play with FRAME SIZE and LENS SIZE to control perspective; 'Extreme Wide Shot' with a 'Fisheye Lens' for expansive underwater vistas, or 'Close-up' with a 'Macro Lens' for intricate coral details.
- 5Incorporate weather conditions directly into your prompt, beyond just lighting, e.g., 'torrential rain,' 'misty morning,' or 'calm glassy surface,' to enhance realism and atmosphere.
