Scene prompt guide
Colossal bioluminescent jellyfish drift above sweeping desert dunes at sunset, carrying tiny illuminated cities inside their clear domes. GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst renders complex volumetric transparency and glowing architectural micro-details while maintaining clean contrast against arid sand ripples. The included caravan grounds the dreamlike concept with immediate real-world scale.

Keep the aspect ratio set to 16:9 to give the expansive desert floor and sprawling aerial domes proper horizontal clearance. High quality mode is essential so GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst accurately resolves tiny glowing windows and micro-architecture inside the clear domes. If you plan to generate vertical phone wallpapers, change the ratio to 9:16 while keeping high quality enabled to prevent compressed details.
Specify architectural styles such as glowing medieval spires or miniature domed towers. Clarifying structural shapes stops the model from rendering generic glowing blobs inside the bells.
Yes, but replace the desert with an unexpected aquatic floor like a dried coral basin or sunken highway. If you switch to standard open ocean, the surreal nature of the wandering caravan is lost.
Dense dust haze can swallow fine lines. Add crisp filament tentacles dragging across sand ridges to force sharp edges against the pale desert dunes.
