How to use this prompt
Look straight down the canal with a 'one-point perspective, canal vanishing toward the centre.' The converging building lines pull the eye deep into the 21:9 frame. Put the moon above the vanishing point so it sits in the gap between the rooftops. Name the textures that make Venice recognisable: 'peeling ochre plaster, arched windows, wooden mooring poles with striped tops.' Those striped poles are a quick Venetian cue. Keep only a few windows lit, scattered across both sides. A wall of lit windows reads as a hotel. Moored gondolas should be tied up, covered and bobbing gently.
Variations to try
- Sunset Venice — golden light on the canal for a romantic scene
- Foggy Venice — morning mist softening the buildings for mystery
