Original prompt

Ideal prompt

“A car on a road”

“Wide shot, eye-level, static camera focused on a BMW M4 Coupe driving along with the camera down the center of an empty, paved road at dusk. The sky is a gradient from deep twilight blue overhead to warm orange and pink hues near the horizon. The car's red tail lights are illuminated. Silhouetted trees line the sides of the road in the distance. A light haze or dust trail lingers behind the receding car. Photorealistic, cinematic style with natural twilight lighting.”
