The prompt
Prompt
A woodturning lathe mid-cut, a maple bowl blank spinning with a long continuous ribbon of pale shaving peeling from a bowl gouge, fresh shavings piled on the bed ways and the shop floor, a partly shaped hollow already visible inside the blank, warm workshop tungsten light from above with a cooler window fill from the side, fine dust in the air catching the beam, no people, no logos on the lathe, no text --ar 3:2 --stylize 150How to use this prompt
- 1
Open the generator that matches the model and version above, and start a new image rather than editing an existing one.
- 2
Set the output to 3:2 and apply the settings shown in the parameters panel — together those produced the 768 × 516 image on this page.
- 3
Paste the prompt exactly as written. Changing the wording changes the image, so copy it before you edit.
- 4
Generate, then change one thing at a time. The result will not be pixel-identical to the image on this page, because no seed is recorded for it.
Midjourney takes the aspect ratio as a parameter appended to the prompt rather than as a separate control, written as --ar 3:2, and --stylize followed by a number controls how far the model pushes its own aesthetic. Append both to the end of the prompt text instead of looking for fields for them.
