Although Cee’s taking a much-deserved break, I’m keeping my FOTD posts going as I explore further with flowers in Hot Mods. Looking forward to Cee’s return in February
I am delving into my archives for warm, sunny shots during these frosty days.

Out on a walk yesterday, I spotted this wee patch of snowdrops just coming to bloom.

A couple of days ago, I did a post based on an idea by my wife — a floral fountain. This was to imagine a fountain with flowers taking the place of water. The end result was good but not quite what she envisaged, so back to prompt engineering to get the desired effect.
I used some new bouquet images and one of my shots of the Doulton Fountain in Glasgow as the baseline for the project.
The images below fit Susan’s description. I’m currently working on another post about the floral fountain, where I’ll share more about the journey through prompt engineering to get the right look. Between the concept and the end result, there were about 2 hours of continuous adjustment and 10 iterations.

I’ve done a bouquet in a library before, but wanted to revisit this setting. Below is the baseline picture I’d taken a while back.
Bouquet & lamp
I wanted the bouquet and lamp to be in a library setting with a well-used chair and threadbare rug.
Bouquet & lamp in a corner of the library
I liked the outcome of this but had imagined the scene in a large, old library, so back to the prompt.
Bouquet in a grandiose old library
Again, a great result. I wanted the scale of the library to be the same but make the bouquet more prominent
Bouquet takes centre stage in the old library
Now, it was time to darken the setting with the golden glow of dusk coming through the windows & plenty of shadows. I also wanted to see how it would come out as a watercolour.
This scene got me thinking: Could I make only the area lit by the lamp in colour and the rest in black & white? I set about engineering the prompt to give the effect below.
Selective colour image of bouquet & lamp in the old library
Then prompt work was well worth the effort & I was really happy with how the image came out.
Next, I decided to go a bit crazy with a damaged library & view of a dystopian world beyond, & a bit of selective colour thrown in for good measure.
This one is much closer to what I envisioned from a futuristic/steampunk blend.
