## Prompt and Settings

Copy prompt

An old wooden violin with coral antlers, floats upright while sea snails crawl along its strings, inside a dry ballroom where the floor has become pale sand. Vertical 2:3 camera at eye level, centered portrait framing with the instrument suspended above scattered pearl buttons. Moonlight pours through tall windows and casts wave shadows on plaster walls. Surreal still life, varnished wood, porous coral, satin dust, delicate shell trails, quiet museum detail.

## Why This Prompt Works

The picture turns a familiar instrument into a marine relic without placing it underwater. The phrase "floats upright" establishes the portrait-like composition, and "floor has become pale sand" gives Chroma1-Flash a grounded surreal environment. Moonlight and wave shadows create the visual contradiction, while varnished wood, coral pores, and shell trails provide material cues that keep the transformation precise and readable.
