1. Adjust the recipe to describe your subject and preferred background.
2. Copy the complete recipe, then open ChatGPT.
3. Upload your photo in ChatGPT and paste the recipe. The short code alone is not an official command.

Choose the change deliberately.

Night lighting must retain enough form to orient the viewer. Decide whether the moon is visible or only implied, and keep bright edges consistent with that choice.

Review and refine the result
