Keep the aspect ratio set to 16:9 to preserve the cinematic widescreen proportion that fits both subjects and the ferry backdrop. Leave quality on high to ensure GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst renders clean fabric folds and distinct sea mist particles. If you switch to vertical 9:16 for mobile display, reposition the characters closer together so the gangway and ferry stay within the narrower field of view.
Include explicit negative phrasing such as 'no logos, no readable signs, unpainted hull'. Models like GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst process negative framing best when paired with clean descriptive terms like 'weathered plain steel surface'.
A 50mm eye-level perspective replicates natural human vision without the exaggerated perspective distortion of wide-angle lenses or the flattening compression of telephoto lenses. This keeps both characters looking natural and emotionally relatable.
Yes, replace 'a reunion held just before the embrace' with 'wrapped in a tight embrace on the gangway'. Keep in mind that close physical overlap sometimes causes AI models to fuse clothing or limbs together.
