Second round of write me anything you want, in 10 words or less, and I’ll send you the best picture I can prompt from it through midjourney.
I’ve been learning how to use MJ since yesterday and I’m looking to work on examples. 🙏

Arabic Bitcoin cyberpunk riding a hippo in a shallow river
That was ... not easy. 😅
Thank you, now I've written down to learn how to implement subtle logos into creations.
Best I could do for the "Bitcoin" part was the "hippo laser eyes". 🤣

Binary star sunset porch rockingchairs ocean view across canyon valley
This one was very interesting, thank you!
MJ basically nailed 95% of it on the first try... except it doesn't have a clue what binary stars are.
Here was its first try : https://void.cat/UMpzeVjPqtKDk2CLmemewG
This was the best I could get to without the binary stars : https://void.cat/CXzPrHZHHXVHpnzWrgPEG3
And this was the final result, with is not as good overall as the rest, but at least shows 2, even 3 stars : https://void.cat/6zKg4LWrYdyhCscwxxAFv6
Wow!
Thanks so much!🙏 These are *very* cool...😁
As you might perhaps imagine, there's a bit of a story behind my request, which I'll tell you after commenting on the images...😜😆
Meanwhile, aside from the detail of wanting two sun's, the first image most closely matches my imagination of the scene, especially in the brightness level and the portrayal of the canyon slightly to the left of the lodge and the ocean.
The other change I would wish for would be reorienting the lodge 90 degrees left so that its long, wide front porch--which has no front railing--looks directly out over the ocean, rather than what presently appears to be the left edge of the porch.
The rockers are nice, though it might be nice to see a seated man and woman from behind. The width and planking of the porch are good.
The two suns would be slightly different sizes and colors, both reflecting in the ocean but neither as large as the extras in the third image... Similar to the sunset scene in the original Star Wars movie?
There would also be two small offshore islands, close together and 🏝️ visible in the right half of the vista.
FYI, this is a scene from a theological fantasy I'm writing, set on a planet in a 5-star system. The lodge is a refuge for visitors exploring some of the more unusual features of the planet and/or considering homesteading there.
Thanks a lot for helping to bring some of my imagination to life!🙏😁💜😆👍
Thank you for your feedback, and for the explanation!
Your project sounds very interesting! We'll always need people creating original content, as AI still cannot really imagine, but just jumble and recombine, so more power to you!
I need to toil in the fiat mines for a while, but I'll work on your vision when I'll have some spare time. No guarantees though, I'm at the beginning of my
(mid)journey, so I'm not sure I'll manage to fit as much details into the final result, just seeing how hard it was the generate binary stars...)
But I'll give it a try, and this will be a good learning process.
Hi Friend,
I don't mean to burden you; however, if you find the exercise useful I will gladly receive anything further that you are able to coax out of the beast...😆🙏 Thanks again for what you have already done!
You've also now piqued my curiosity...
What are you hoping to do with Midjourny? And what does it take to get involved with it?
I hope your fiat ⛏️ mining is going well today... I'm briefly awake in the middle of my night, and planning on rising again in a couple of hours to watch the adventure of the attempted launch of a Starship to orbit.😁💜
Hey Duncan,
No problem !
I’ve always liked art and had a ton of ideas, but I never had the means to create anything with my own hands, since I suck so bad at drawing, painting, etc…
So I tried midjourney a while ago, but it was crude. But then I saw they updated it to version 5 and decided to do my best to learn how to prompt the machine, and got some “good enough for me” results very quick, so I want to dig deeper.
I strongly believe over the next 10 to 20 years we’ll have a productivity shock that I call the “Automation Revolution”.
AI tools like ChatGPT, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, AutoGPT and so many other LLM, NN and derivatives will render plenty of jobs obsolete.
A single example would be accountants:
In a free market, you could have an AI doing the work of a team of accountants faster, without errors, for a fraction of the price of said accountant team. Thus I envision 90% accountants being replaced by GPTs, and the top 10% left would only be there to “teach, tweak and prompt” the models.
If you think about it, this applies to many, many jobs. And since you’re also a SpaceX lover as I am, you must be aware Tesla is working on Optimus, thus in 20 years we might even have autonomous bots also starting to replace manual labor in several lines of work.
All that to say that sooner or later, I believe all humans will have to be proficient in :
-Coding the machines
-Prompting the machines
-Inventing new things for our world (like writing original stories, which will then be incorporated by the machines)
-Providing human warmth and company to other
It’s a rather cynical view, but that’s what I believe.
So I’m just trying to learn a new skill that might keep me relevant in this new world… while also doing something I like in the process, since I always wished to be able to create nice pictures. 😁
Update: https://void.cat/Pc1Q352oH4y15rSttYc4yB
It's clearly not perfect but I tried to fit as many requested themes as possible, but lost some in the process (the planking...), unfortunately.
I had to learn quickly how to create a second sun myself (tried to do different size/color as requested). It was just not possible for midjourney to understand all the context in one picture, even though I tried many techniques to get it to generate a second sun itself (blending, prompting, image weighting...), to no avail.
I guess at the moment that's it's/my limits, and a graphic designer learning to handle tools like MJ should really have superhuman creative skills.
One more thing to add to my learning list. 😅
Tuned red Ducati classic in Florence. Italy. Hot summer. Street Cafe Racer. No text, no logo, without signature. Photoreal. Not deformed. Accurate form.
Here you go !
WOW! I am really impressed as Stable Diffusion power user. An excellent work from you. Here is my Stable Diffusion version. Another proof that MJ V5 has no longer a competition. You are soon a MJ master.
Thank you, yours is quite nice too !
It says more about MJ5 than me, as your prompt was very precise and MJ did all the work. The hardest part was removing the text/logo, took a few tries even when prompting for no text.
I just spent 3 hours learning about the basics yesterday and now I’m just practicing. I’ve noticed it’s basically very easy to be “good” at using MJ (since it does all the work), but it’s the little details that might take a while to master, or images with several different concept into it.
Looking to keep learning !
