## Prompt and Settings

Copy prompt

Coarse sea salt crystals cling to the dimpled surface of a curled citrus peel, with one translucent shard catching light near the center. The setting is a dark ceramic saucer with scattered zest flecks and a thin ring of juice. Macro camera, square 1:1 frame, 105mm lens, extreme close focus. Low side light creates bright crystal edges. Studio food macro style, porous peel texture, glassy salt facets, vivid Z-Image-Turbo rendering.

## Why This Prompt Works

This food macro stays tight on the citrus peel rather than the wider table and gives Z-Image-Turbo hard edges, pores, and translucent surfaces to resolve. The phrase about salt crystals clinging to citrus peel carries the composition and scale. Low side light defines the crystal facets, while the dark ceramic saucer, zest flecks, and juice ring add contrast without making the scene busy.

## Recreate It in Private Diffusion

1.  Paste the prompt into Studio and choose Z-Image-Turbo.
2.  Set Size to XL and Aspect Ratio to Square 1:1.
3.  Type 1441013431 into Seed. On a Mac, switch off Randomize first.
4.  Paste the negative prompt into Negative prompt.
5.  Switch off Rewrite description (Rewrite Prompt on a Mac) so Studio keeps the prompt word for word.
6.  Switch on Max quality (slower).

Those are the settings that made this picture, and they run on your own Mac with 24 GB or more, with nothing uploaded.
