Great Midjourney prompts have four parts: subject, style, light, and parameters. Subject is what you're showing. Style is the artistic frame (cinematic, isometric, photoreal). Light controls mood (golden hour, neon, soft daylight). Parameters tune output (--ar, --style, --v). Start with a single high-quality reference. Build from there. Iterate. ## The 4-part formula 1. **Subject**, Be specific. "A man" is weak. "A weather-worn fisherman with a pipe" is strong. 2. **Style**. Pick one and stick to it. 3. **Light**. Light shapes mood more than anything. 4. **Params**, Don't over-engineer.
