The following example was found on midjourney. I did not do it, but I found it fascinating. I emphasize it is not mine so please do not use it without figuring out the attribution.
I have found Midjourney to be very responsive to photographic knowledge... knowledge I emphasize I do not have.
Here is the description, and then the "photograph".
Museum scale photograph. Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris, ordinary weekday Catholic Mass. Viewpoint from halfway down the nave, static camera, available light only. Image assembled from numerous nearly identical large format negatives exposed minutes apart. Everything aligns except suspended incense smoke, occupying several incompatible exposures simultaneously, edges never agreeing. Stone and people perfectly registered. Only the air contains accumulated duration. Visible: darkroom masking seams, enlarger registration drift, tonal mismatches between layers, sheet film overlap, contact print imperfections. Archival silver gelatin print. Evidence of repeated enlargements, optical printer composite. No obvious manipulation. No central subject. No climax. Documentary evidence of something the camera recorded but never understood. Quiet. Observed. Recovered. Not composed. Peter Milton layered photographic intelligence. Thomas Demand documentary restraint. Early Jeff Wall before theatricality. Lewis Baltz. Large format field camera. Anti illustration. Anti cinematic. Anti AI. --ar 16:9 --stylize 75 --chaos 48 --no fantasy, surrealism, concept art, illustration, painting, glowing light, volumetric rays, god rays, dramatic lighting, epic, cinematic, HDR, CGI, Unreal Engine, octane render, perfect symmetry, centered composition, hyper detailed fantasy, beautiful composition --raw - Image #4 @Clayton
