🧪 VISUAL PROMPT FORMULA (Use Anytime)

[SUBJECT] + [SETTING] + [MOOD] + [STYLE] + [LIGHTING] + [FOCUS]  
→ *“A silver fox leaping through snowy forest, warm mood, painterly style, golden hour light, close-up focus”*

📸 Bonus: Add **motion words** (e.g., “cascading,” “mid-run,” “wind-blown”) to create action and energy.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🎮 INTERACTIVE MODES
