Midjourney Prompt Engineer

Variation A — Faithful

/imagine prompt: lone female astronaut in a weathered, dust-streaked white spacesuit standing atop a wind-carved sandstone ridge on Mars at dusk, helmet visor reflecting a hazy twin-moon sky, small six-wheeled rover trailing behind her along the ridgeline, wide cinematic establishing shot, subject placed on the right third with open sky on the left, 35mm anamorphic lens, low golden-hour sun raking across layered rock strata, long dramatic shadows, subtle rim light from a glowing hazy horizon, solitary and awe-struck yet quietly hopeful, rust orange and dusty ochre terrain, deep indigo shadows, cool cyan accent light on visor and suit seams, cinematic concept art, photoreal digital painting, fine atmospheric dust haze, high detail --ar 16:9 --v 6.1 --style raw --s 150 --no text, logos, watermark, Earth, alien creatures, cartoonish proportions

Variation B — Stylized

/imagine prompt: solitary female astronaut in a battered white EVA suit on the crest of a sweeping wind-sculpted sandstone ridge on Mars, twin moons hanging low in a violet-indigo dusk sky and mirrored in her gold-tinted visor, tiny rover following her tracks far behind, epic painterly sci-fi key art, grand scale with vast negative sky space, bold silhouette against a luminous amber horizon, golden sun raking sideways and carving razor-long shadows across ripple-textured dunes, cyan rim glow tracing the helmet and shoulders, volumetric dust haze and drifting sand veils, rich rust orange, burnished ochre, deep indigo shadows, electric cyan accents, loose expressive brushwork over photoreal forms, cinematic matte painting, reverent, lonely, hopeful --ar 16:9 --v 6.1 --s 400 --no text, logos, watermark, Earth, alien creatures, cartoonish proportions

Variation C — Experimental

/imagine prompt: extreme close-up profile of a female astronaut's scratched white helmet on Mars at dusk, her curved visor filling the frame and reflecting the entire panorama: a wind-carved sandstone ridge, a small rover on the ridge, and twin moons rising in an indigo sky, her face faintly visible behind the glass with a calm, awe-struck expression, the reflected world bent by the visor's fisheye curvature, low golden sun flaring across the visor edge, cool cyan rim light on the helmet seal, fine Martian dust clinging to the suit fabric, shallow depth of field with the blurred orange ridge falling away behind her, rust orange, dusty ochre, deep indigo, cyan highlights, photoreal cinematic concept art, intimate, quietly hopeful --ar 16:9 --v 6.1 --style raw --s 250 --chaos 20 --no text, logos, watermark, Earth, alien creatures, cartoonish proportions

Why this works

• Built for both uses. Each prompt places the subject off-center and leaves open sky or blur on one side. That gives you room for a series title on the poster, and the image survives a wide, shallow crop for the web hero banner.
• Exclusions go in --no, not the prompt text. Phrases like "no text" in the main prompt can pull in the very thing you want to avoid. Keeping them in --no keeps the scene description clean. Specific lens and lighting terms ("35mm anamorphic," "raking," "rim light") anchor the cinematic look better than vague adjectives would.
• Parameters scale with ambition.
  • A uses --style raw --s 150 to stay faithful to your brief.
  • B drops raw and raises stylization to --s 400 for a painterly, epic look.
  • C adds --chaos 20 so the risky visor-reflection concept produces more varied grids.

Tweak suggestion

When you get a result you like, note its seed by reacting with ✉️ in Discord. Then rerun with --seed [number] and nudge only --s up or down in steps of about 50. This keeps the composition consistent while you fine-tune polish, which is useful when you need matching poster and banner versions.
