Midjourney: --ar 3:2 --style raw --v 7 --s 250 Flux: guidance 3.5, 30 steps SDXL: CFG 6, 35 steps, warm-tone LoRA at 0.4 Grade: pull the shadows slightly cyan, keep highlights amber. For this subject: Set a true black and a true white point; monochrome without both ends looks like a desaturated photo.
- Compose for tonal contrast, not colour contrast — two different colours of the same brightness merge in mono.
- Say where the sun is ("backlit, sun just behind the left shoulder") for consistent flare.
- Golden hour + backlight = rim light. Ask for it explicitly.
- Add "slight haze in the air" to get that expensive falloff between layers.
