Out of the frame / 2026
Light that lingers
An old blue bicycle with a basket of flowers against an ochre wall. Below, it rolls out of a strip of that wall onto bare paper, dropping a few petals.
The basket breaks the top of the frame, and a few fallen petals mark where the wheels touch down.
The poster prompt expects an uploaded photo, and there was none. The photo on top was generated first, from this description, then handed to the prompt as if someone had taken it:
3:2 landscape. An old pastel-blue bicycle with a wicker basket full of white and pink flowers, leaning against a weathered ochre-yellow wall in a quiet street, morning sun casting the bicycle's shadow on the wall. 35mm lens at eye level. A real photograph, not an illustration. No people, no text, no logos, no watermark.
The poster's lines: Summer walks / blooms in passing / light that lingers. And: A quiet companion — through seasons and stories.
Using the uploaded photo, create a 3:4 vertical poster split into top and bottom halves that touch seamlessly, with no white line, gap, or border between them. Top: the original photo, full-bleed. Bottom: a warm off-white textured paper background. The main subject is cut out, enlarged, and centered. Behind it, a thin horizontal rectangle shows a blurred crop of the original scene, and the subject breaks out of the frame (3D pop-out). The subject's base fades softly into the paper with natural particles, shadow, or reflection. Add small uppercase serif text in light grey with wide spacing: 3 short poetic lines at top-left and 2 lines with a "—" at bottom-right. Minimal gallery-poster style, photorealistic.
