๐ก Tips for Better Results
Layer your composition with clear foreground, midground, and background elements โ this creates depth and makes the landscape feel truly immersive rather than flat.
Combine two unexpected terrain types (e.g., 'underwater desert' or 'floating frozen jungle') to create original and visually striking worlds.
Specify a single strong focal point and describe the lighting pointing toward it to guide the viewer's eye naturally through the scene.
