ZHMacro Miniature Floating City Model on Wooden Base
A structured JSON prompt for an ultra-realistic macro shot of a miniature city model resting on a polished wooden base, with a floating layered rock underside and a circular road system. It uses an 85mm macro lens with shallow depth of field and tilt-shift to sell the tabletop-diorama illusion, with strict rules against sci-fi glow, floating vehicles, or exaggerated effects.
