Improved prompt:
Create an ultra-realistic street photography image of a 27-year-old Turkish-looking woman walking in Ankara, Turkey. She has a soft, slightly chubby figure, with blonde hair that falls loosely around her shoulders. Her casual outfit consists of a tight, white tank top and high-waisted patterned pants. She carries a small, dark crossbody bag.
The photo captures the woman as she turns to look over her shoulder. Behind her, a yellow taxi is completely filled with fluffy cats that climb around inside and press their faces against the windows. The taxi is packed full, with cats even hanging out of the partially open windows.
In the background, large road signs point to EskiÅehir and Kızılay. The street is lined with more yellow taxis, some of which also have cats peeking out of the windows. To the right of the frame, old apartment buildings with balconies stretch up into the sky. Pedestrians in darker jackets walk ahead, appearing to ignore the bizarre spectacle of the cat-filled taxis.
The scene includes Turkish brand signage: a Migros sign is visible in the distance, a Åok sign hangs over a small side market, and a Turkcell shop with its blue logo is partially obscured by other buildings. Small Ãlker and Eti snack billboards are scattered throughout the scene, all slightly out of focus but readable.
The photograph is shot on a regular iPhone by someone walking a few steps behind the woman. The framing is vertical, with the woman slightly off-center and one cat-filled taxi cut off at the edge of the frame. The exposure is set automatically, resulting in a slightly blown-out sky. No studio lighting is usedâonly the natural afternoon daylight.
The image quality has the feel of a quick phone snapshot. There is motion blur on some of the cats as they move around in the taxi, and slight blur on the pedestrians and cars in the background. Digital noise is visible in the shadows, and there is lens flare. The colors are unedited and natural, with skin texture showing pores and small imperfections. The overall effect is a chaotic Ankara street scene made surreal by the presence of the cat-filled taxis.
Original prompt (before our improvements)
Ultra-realistic amateur street photo of the same 27-year-old Turkish-looking curvy woman in Ankara, soft slightly chubby figure, blonde hair loose, tight white tank top, patterned high-waisted pants, small crossbody bag. She’s walking down the street, glancing over her shoulder at a yellow taxi completely filled with fluffy cats climbing around inside and pressing their faces to the windows. Behind her, large road signs point to Eskişehir and Kızılay. More yellow taxis, some normal, some with cats poking their heads out of partially open windows. Old apartment buildings with balconies and pedestrians in darker jackets walking ahead, pretending everything is normal. Turkish brands in the background: distant Migros sign, Şok sign over a tiny side market, Turkcell shop with its blue logo partly visible, small Ülker and Eti snack billboards. All slightly out of focus but readable. Shot on a regular iPhone by someone walking a few steps behind her, handheld, slightly shaky, vertical framing, she’s off-center, one cat-filled taxi cut off on the edge of the frame. Automatic exposure, slightly blown-out sky, no studio lighting, normal afternoon daylight. Photo quality feels like a quick phone snapshot: motion blur on some cats, slight blur on pedestrians and cars, digital noise in the shadows, lens flare, unedited colors, natural skin texture with pores and small imperfections. Everyday Ankara chaos but with absurd cat-filled taxis.
