Prompt
A golden-hour portrait headshot of a scruffy mixed-breed dog with warm amber eyes, low sun backlighting the fur into a glowing halo rim, gentle fill light on the face, crisp catchlight in each eye, soft warm bokeh of a grassy field behind, head centered with clear space above the ears, shot on an 85mm lens at f/2.0, rich honey-toned color grade

How to use this prompt
"Low sun backlighting the fur into a glowing halo rim" is the money clause — without it Flux lights the dog flat-on and the golden-hour signature vanishes. "Gentle fill light on the face" matters just as much, because pure backlight silhouettes the eyes, and on a pet account avatar the eyes are the whole personality at 40 pixels. Keep the head centered with space above the ears: platform circle crops clip ear tips first, and pointy-eared breeds suffer most. Hold guidance at 3.5 — pushing it higher hardens the bokeh into distracting rings behind the head.
Variations to try
- Cat version — "a long-haired ginger cat with green eyes" keeps the same halo-rim recipe
- Indoor refresh — swap the field for "soft warm bokeh of fairy lights indoors" for a winter update
