Sample Prompt

Create a photorealistic documentary street photograph of {argument name="location and era" default="Akihabara, Tokyo in the 1990s"}, shot from eye level in a narrow electronics shopping street at dusk or late afternoon. The scene contains about 30 visible pedestrians, mostly adult men in casual 1990s clothing such as denim jackets, plaid sweaters, light-wash jeans, bomber jackets, business suits, shoulder bags, and shopping bags; faces are soft, indistinct, or motion-blurred like an old candid TV still. The street is packed but not chaotic, with people standing, browsing, walking away from camera, and gathering near storefronts. Both sides of the street are lined with tall commercial buildings covered in dense Japanese electronics-store signage, including large vertical and horizontal signs with readable fragments such as {argument name="main sign text" default="オノデン"}, {argument name="store brand text" default="Panasonic"}, “FAN,” “BEST,” and other katakana shop signs. The left side has a prominent blue and yellow electronics storefront canopy, while the right side has an orange-and-blue shop awning, shelves, posters, and boxed merchandise displayed at the entrance. Overhead utility wires crisscross the bright washed-out sky between mid-rise buildings. Use a realistic 1990s Japanese consumer camcorder or VHS broadcast aesthetic: 4:3 aspect ratio, slightly low resolution, interlaced softness, muted colors, mild film grain, blown highlights in the sky, subtle barrel distortion, natural crowd clutter, and no modern smartphones, LED billboards, contemporary fashion, or futuristic elements.
