Torn-Edge Ink Travel Memory Poster

Turn each travel photo into a separate vertical editorial poster, showing the process of memory receding through a real photograph, observational line drawing, and gradually vanishing ink silhouette.

Prompt

Create a separate torn-edge ink memory editorial poster for each travel photo I upload. Output each photo individually; do not combine multiple images into a collage. Use an overall 3:4 portrait layout, with a three-stage descending structure—“real photograph → observational line drawing → ink silhouette”—to depict the same scene.

The top should occupy about 28%–36% of the image height and faithfully preserve the most important scene in the original photo. Accurately retain the subjects' identity, number, pose, orientation, spacing, architecture, vehicles, boats, animals, people's actions, real materials, spatial direction, natural light and shadows, and distinctive colors. Apply only subtle art-publication color grading. The photograph must remain clearly recognizable; do not turn it into an illustration or decorative thumbnail.

Connect the top photograph to the paper below with clearly visible, hand-torn ragged edges: real paper fibers, irregular bumps, and slight thickness. Do not use digital blur, feathering, or a soft-light gradient.

The middle section is warm ivory, unbleached cotton paper, or light beige rough paper, forming the observation page with the most open space. Redraw the same subject with unstable pen lines, short hatching, dry ink, and a little gray wash, accurately preserving number, pose, and relative position while deliberately removing irrelevant backgrounds and tiny details. Choose a tree trunk, lighthouse, bridge cables, building edge, ship mast, mountain crevice, or vehicle outline from the photo as a vertical memory anchor. Keep the drawing within a narrower horizontal area; do not fill the page or automatically trace the photo's edges.

At the bottom, let the scene further dissolve into pale gray-brown, smoke gray, blue-gray, or olive-black ink masses, uneven water stains, dry-brush grain, fine broken lines, and 1–2 restrained drips. Reduce the subjects to a small group of dark silhouettes that still show the correct number and direction, placed on a horizontal brushstroke in an accent color drawn from the original photo. Use only one accent color; do not default to orange.

The information density must decrease from top to bottom: the photo is densest, the line drawing comes next, and the silhouettes are simplest. Keep continuous, clearly visible breathing room on the paper around the middle section and subjects. Let the ink masses enter incompletely from one side or the bottom edge; do not enclose all four sides.

In the open space in the middle, add a title of 1–3 English words, a “MEMORY NO. 01”-style field, and an observation sentence of 5–10 English words. Use legible typewriter bold, monospaced archival lettering, or uppercase letterpress type with missing ink. Supporting text should be smaller but must not shrink to gray lines. Text must come from the subject, action, weather, or spatial relationships in the photo. Do not copy the author's text or invent research data.

The overall effect should be a travel archive page that has been torn open, observed, and gradually faded away—restrained and poetic, with authentic paper fibers, dry ink, and a sense of time.

Strictly avoid: a hard, straight division between top and bottom; a standard half-photo, half-sketch template; digitally softened transitions; unrelated illustrations below; watercolor covering the whole page; imitation of traditional Chinese ink landscape painting; cute cartoons; detailed animal or plant field-guide illustrations; automatic tracing; dense technical infographics; oversized titles that overwhelm the image; multiple accent colors; author names, signatures, account names, logos, URLs, QR codes, watermarks, and garbled text.

How to use

Usage suggestion: Upload one travel photo with a clearly visible subject and generate one image at a time. Based on the subject, action, and spatial relationships in the photo, have the model automatically fill in an English title, number, and observation sentence.
