Prompt: a 90s fantasy movie still of a mysterious hooded mystic riding a carriage pulled by a goat, entering a castle gate at night, the mystic's face is hidden in the shadows of his hood, various mystical trinkets are in the back of the carriage, the scene is a close-up shot and shot with a 35mm lens --ar 16:9 --v 6.0

Maybe not as flashy as some of the other images around here, but I like the movie quality I managed to get. Also, I really like that big goat :)

    I prefer that it’s not “flashy”, it has the right mixture of looking rendered and photorealistic for a fantasy picture in my book. Also, visual context is provided (I can immediately make up a story for that encounter in my head) while being ambiguous or rather ominous to be widely usable.

    On a sidenote, IMHO Midjourney has emerged as generating the highest quality AI images. Also, great that people constantly post their prompts here, I noticed a weird trend in guarding prompts akin to trade secrets, a ridiculous notion as far as I’m concerned.

      Thanks, lately I’ve been burned out on generating funny and weird images. I just feel like generating movie scenes that look realistic enough to give that feeling you described. So I’m glad it’s being appreciated :)

      I try to always include my prompt in my post, even when it’s a little embarrassing when things in the prompt don’t match the image. Often they contain leftovers from the last 20 attempts at generating the same image. But it’s good to share if it can help others.
