How to use this prompt
"Top-down aerial view" plus "hidden under glowing translucent umbrellas" is the trick — the umbrellas become the subjects, so SDXL never has to draw faces and the anatomy failures that usually sink street scenes just cannot happen. "Dark empty asphalt filling the upper third" is your lock-screen clock zone; if zebra stripes climb into it, add "crosswalk confined to the lower two thirds". Keep cfg at 7 — push it higher and the neon reflections posterize into flat color blobs on the wet asphalt. The umbrella colors are the accent system: keep them to two hues or the frame turns carnival instead of cinematic.
Variations to try
- Quiet version — reduce to "one single amber umbrella crossing alone" and mute the neon to "a single distant pink sign reflection" for a lonelier mood
- Snow version — replace rain with "wet snow flurries, slush gathering along the zebra stripes" and shift umbrellas to "deep red and warm white"
