About this prompt

What this prompt creates

This prompt places you on a rain-soaked city street at night, surrounded by the glow of pink and cyan neon signs. The wet pavement doubles the light with reflections, and a light mist softens everything behind you, which gives the image a cinematic, slightly mysterious mood. The coloured light also hides imperfections in the original photo, so even an average selfie can look striking.

Tips for the best result

  • Ask for “no readable brand names” so the signs stay generic and safe to share.
  • If your face turns too pink or blue, add “neutral skin tones, coloured light only on the edges”.
  • A photo with your face slightly turned works well because the scene suggests a candid moment.
  • Night scenes can hide detail in the shadows, so ask for “slightly brighter face” if your features look too dark on a phone screen with low brightness.

Variations to try

  • Change the colours to green and orange for a different city mood.
  • Add an umbrella with droplets catching the neon light.
  • Ask for a wider shot showing the whole street for a movie-still feel.
