The good news?
You can create this Viral AI Image for free using Google Gemini, with a simple prompt and the right settings.
The Viral Prompt (Google Gemini Prompt)
Create a high-quality, ultra-realistic cinematic night-time portrait in 9:16 aspect ratio.
A young man is leaning back casually on a rooftop ledge at night, dressed in an oversized black suit paired with a crisp white shirt and a neatly hanging slim tie.
His posture is relaxed and confident, eyes closed, expressing calm and introspection.
His hands rest casually while holding a simple glass drink bottle (non-alcoholic), adding a stylish editorial vibe.
Face and facial features must match the uploaded reference image 100% with identical skin texture, expression, lighting, and proportions. Do not change the face.
Lighting: dramatic blue and red neon lights washing over the scene, creating a vintage cinematic atmosphere with strong contrast and soft glow.
Background: blurred city rooftop elements with subtle night bokeh.
Quality: ultra-detailed, 8K resolution look, realistic textures, cinematic lighting, shallow depth of field, professional fashion photography style.
No text, no watermark, no logos.
Pose Variant 1 – One Knee Bent (Editorial Confidence)
Pose: He leans against the rooftop ledge with one knee slightly bent and foot resting on the ledge edge. One hand holds the bottle casually near his thigh, while the other slips into his trouser pocket. His eyes remain closed, maintaining a relaxed yet powerful fashion-editorial pose.
