[CREATE A SINGLE HIGH-RESOLUTION VERTICAL PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPH]

*PHOTOGRAPHIC SUBJECT: A vintage car radio faceplate with an amber LED display, showing the text "Weather4Fly" in segmented pixel font.*

[CAMERA ANGLE & PERSPECTIVE]
– A diagonal over-the-shoulder view from the passenger seat, mimicking a realistic night-drive cinematic shot.
– The radio must be tilted at the same natural angle found in authentic car interior photographs, NOT straight or corrected.
– Maintain the natural perspective distortion typical of such an angle.

[TEXT ON LED DISPLAY]
– Clear white characters on a dark orange LED background.
– "Weather4Fly" spelled exactly as given, each character distinct and visible.
– Segmented pixel font, authentic to vintage car radios.
– No typos or additional characters.

[LIGHTING & TONALITY]
– Warm, soft orange LED glow emanating from each character, with a gentle bloom effect around the edges.
– Dark car interior with minimal ambient light, creating deep shadows.
– Shallow depth of field, with soft bokeh highlights appearing naturally in the background.
– Subtle scratches and dust particles visible on the plastic display cover.

[COMPOSITION & FRAMING]
– A tall vertical frame, extending significantly above and below the radio to emphasize the portrait orientation.
– The radio positioned in the middle-to-upper section of the frame, occupying about 40-60% of the height.
– Angled view of the radio dashboard, including side knobs, buttons, and a portion of the surrounding dashboard fading into shadow.
– Asymmetrical composition, preserving the natural perspective distortion.

[DEPTH & DETAIL LEVEL]
– The photograph should evoke a strong sense of depth, with the text appearing slightly offset and three-dimensional.
– Reflections and distortions on the display surface, authentic to a curved and scratched plastic screen.
– A high contrast, moody, and cinematic atmosphere, befitting a night-drive scene.

[RESTRICTIONS]
– *EXCLUDE*: Horizontal layouts, straight-on views, blue or white LED lighting, modern touchscreen designs, digital sharpness, unrealistic symmetry.
– *EXTREMELY LIMIT*: Neon or artificial color shifts, overly sharp digital rendering, cartoon or unrealistic styling.

[FINAL OUTPUT]
– A single vertical portrait photograph in high-resolution JPG format.
– The photograph must capture the specified vintage radio display in a realistic, cinematic night-drive style.
– No watermarks, frames, or additional elements beyond the specified composition.

[FORMATTING]
– Use clear, concise language.
– Bullet points for clarity.
– Capitalize key terms for emphasis.
– Provide specific dimensions and ratios where relevant.

Original prompt (before our improvements)

Create a high-resolution *VERTICAL (portrait)* photograph of a vintage car radio screen at night. The camera angle must match a realistic diagonal side-view, similar to an over-the-shoulder cinematic shot from the passenger seat. Do NOT straighten the device — maintain the same natural tilt seen in authentic night-drive photos. TEXT ON THE LED DISPLAY (amber pixel font): Weather4Fly STYLE & LIGHTING: – Warm orange LED glow, soft bloom around each segmented character. – Dark car interior with minimal ambient light. – Deep shadows, shallow depth of field, soft bokeh highlights. – Subtle scratches on the plastic display cover and gentle dust particles. – High contrast, moody, cinematic night-drive aesthetic. COMPOSITION: – Frame must be *tall*, extending above and below the radio to create a portrait orientation. – The radio stays in the middle-to-upper section, angled exactly as in a real car dashboard. – Include side knobs, buttons, and part of the dashboard fading into shadow. – Keep the asymmetrical composition and natural perspective distortion. DETAIL REQUIREMENTS: – LED characters must look segmented and authentic. – Slight reflections on the display surface. – Warm tones only — no neon or artificial color shifts. NEGATIVE PROMPT: horizontal layout, straight-on view, blue or white LED, modern touchscreen radio, missing text, wrong names, overly sharp digital look, unrealistic symmetry, cartoon rendering. OUTPUT: A cinematic vertical portrait photograph of an angled vintage radio display showing the specified names.
