Pro Tips
- Use specific lighting terms in your prompt for better results (e.g., "warm golden hour sunlight" vs. just "light").
- Combine prompt and direction for maximum control — describe the quality while specifying the angle.
- For product shots, "Left" or "Right" directions often create appealing depth and dimension.
- Use "None" direction when you want the prompt to fully control lighting placement.
- Works best with clear subjects and well-defined edges.
