Notes
Tested from an original fictional city sidewalk reference photo. GPT Image 2 text-to-image created the before reference in 87 seconds. GPT Image 2 image-to-image completed the street photography transformation, but the first local download of the provider temporary file hit a TLS reset; checking the same completed task and retrying the download uploaded the final image successfully. The prompt preserved the subject, clothing, walking pose, and sidewalk setting while adding rain reflections, background pedestrians, vehicle lights, motion blur, film grain, and a more candid 35mm documentary street feel.
Prompt
Transform the uploaded plain city sidewalk reference photo into an authentic candid street photography image while preserving the main subject’s navy jacket, beige pants, white sneakers, walking pose, and urban sidewalk setting. Make it feel like a decisive-moment documentary photograph shot on a 35mm lens: natural available light, slight motion blur from passing pedestrians, wet pavement reflections after light rain, layered foreground and background, compressed city energy, subtle film grain, realistic colors, imperfect candid framing, deep but believable street detail, no posed fashion shoot look, no dramatic studio lighting. Add a few blurred anonymous pedestrians and vehicles in the background only, keep the subject recognizable, no readable text, no logos, no watermark, no celebrity resemblance, no distorted body, square 1:1 composition.
