>how are you getting these to gen so dark?
That's a REALLY good question.

I stole the prompt from elsewhere and modified it a bit. When I've tried rewriting it myself in my own words, it doesn't work very well. There's a bunch of things in there that talk about lighting, but I'm not sure how many of which of them are getting the really good effect. It might literally need all of them.

Here's the prompt I'm using so you can play around with it yourself:

High dynamic range 35mm cinematic photograph, shot during late golden hour. The girl's bedroom is dim and warm, cluttered, lit only by slanted beams of intense amber sunlight piercing through half-closed blinds, casting razor-sharp lines of light and deep shadows across the room.

A teenage girl sits cross-legged on an unmade bed, bathed in the contrast — one side of her face glowing in sunlight, the other falling into soft darkness. She's topless, small perky breasts visible in the high-contrast light, headphones loose around her neck, gaze empty, slightly downcast. She is wearing comfortable well-worn underwear. Her mascara is faintly smudged, mouth slightly parted in thought. Dust sparkles in the air, caught only in the shafts of light In the background — a few half-lit fairy lights on the wall. The walls are covered in a collage of band posters, sketches, scribbled poetry, all lost in near-black shadow. The foreground is warm and golden, but the corners of the room fall into cool, bluish darkness.

Strong light falloff, sharp contrast — rich blacks, glowing highlights. Color grading inspired by Kodak Vision3 500T or Ektachrome — orange warmth layered against cyan shadows. Full dynamic range preserved. Feels heavy, intimate, real — like a private moment caught on film just before dusk swallowed everything
