Midjourney prompts work better when you describe material, wear, light, and background

This post argues that vague adjectives like “beautiful” are too underspecified for image models.
Using Midjourney as the example, it shows that stronger prompts should describe:
- the material
- surface wear and age
- craft marks
- lighting
- background
The point is not to add more words, but to reduce ambiguity so the model has fewer decisions to guess. The post includes a concrete rewrite from “beautiful mask” to a much more specific ceremonial-mask prompt.
