Text-to-image tests (6 prompts)
1) Product photo realism
This prompt checks materials, lighting, and small detail like water droplets.
Prompt: Commercial product photo of a matte black wireless earbud case on dark slate, tiny water droplets, softbox key light from left, subtle rim light, shallow depth of field, photorealistic, 50mm lens look

2) Night street scene + readable neon text
This prompt pushes signage clarity in a busy scene with reflections.
Prompt: Candid night street photo in Tokyo after rain, neon shop sign must read BAY NOODLES in clear block letters, wet asphalt reflections, people with umbrellas in the distance, 35mm film grain, high contrast, photorealistic

3) Macro detail
This prompt checks fine texture, focus control, and natural lighting.
Prompt: Extreme macro photo of a honey bee landing on a lavender flower, visible pollen grains on fuzzy legs, translucent wing veins, creamy green bokeh background, razor sharp focus on eyes, natural sunlight, 100mm macro lens look

4) Simple typography on a real object
Instead of a poster, this uses a street sign layout. It still tests letter shapes and spacing.
Prompt: Photo of a vintage metal street sign mounted on a red brick wall, crisp bold typography, text must read OAK STREET on the top line and SAN FRANCISCO on the bottom line, shallow depth of field, natural daylight, photorealistic

5) Complex scene: busy night market
This prompt checks crowd coherence, depth, and lighting in a scene with lots going on.
Prompt: Wide cinematic photo of a crowded open air night market food stall, steam rising from noodle pots, glowing paper lanterns, hands serving bowls, realistic faces, deep background, 35mm lens look, photorealistic

6) Clean layout + readable print text
This prompt checks crisp typography on a simple, well-lit object.
Prompt: Flat lay photo of a minimalist notebook and pen on a warm wooden desk, on the notebook cover printed text must read WEEKLY PLAN in bold sans serif letters, clean spacing, natural window light, subtle shadows, photorealistic

What looked strong (and what did not)
- Lighting and surface detail held up well in the product photo test.
- Macro detail looked sharp, with believable depth of field.
- Short, high-contrast text (street sign, notebook) came out readable.
- Neon sign text stayed legible, even with reflections and crowd detail.
- In the busy market scene, the overall mood worked, but small background text stayed unreliable.
