Paper Window Coastal Memory Travel Poster

Turn each travel photo uploaded by the user into a separate 3:4 vertical art poster: the original photo kept in the upper part, and a torn-paper handmade memory sketch in the lower part.

Prompt

Please make each travel photo I upload into a separate, premium contrast poster titled “PAPER WINDOW COASTAL MEMORY|纸窗海岸记忆”. Output each photo individually; do not create multi-image collages.

Overall, use a 3:4 vertical composition. The original photo occupies about 48%–50% of the frame, and the lower paper-window memory area occupies about 50%–52%. Use a clear, straight, restrained horizontal boundary between the two areas; no gradients, feathering or overlapping.

The upper half must use the original photo itself, accurately preserving the subject's identity and number, people's or animals' poses, boat directions, building outlines, mountains and coastlines, spatial relationships, viewing angle, natural materials, real light and shadow, and original color mood.

Only apply slight travel-publication-grade color grading and extremely thin film grain. To fit the vertical format, you may reasonably crop or naturally extend the sky, water, ground and subject-free environment, but you must not stretch, distort, move, replace or redraw the subject, and must not pass off an AI-rebuilt look-alike as the original photo.

The lower half uses a large area of warm off-white, coarse-textured watercolor paper as the complete background, retaining clearly visible cotton fibers, paper tooth and slight natural color variation.

The large blank area in the lower half is a main part of the composition; do not fill the paper with maps, stamps, shells, tape or decorative journal materials.

In the lower half, slightly left of or near the center, place a small, vertical or near-vertical hand-drawn paper sketch with naturally torn edges.

The small sketch usually occupies only about 38%–45% of the lower-half width and about 45%–58% of its height, and must keep at least 45%–60% of continuous, quiet, undrawn coarse-paper margin around it.

The torn edges show real cotton fibers and slight physical thickness, using only soft, restrained contact shadows. Do not make it look like thick cardboard, a three-dimensional frame, an instant photo or a floating card.

Inside the small sketch, extract only one core travel anchor from the photo that is most worth remembering, such as a boat, a windmill, a set of domes, a lighthouse, a pier, a seaside building or a pedestrian.

Pair it with two to four necessary environmental clues, such as a short stretch of shoreline, a strip of water, a few masts, a mountain ridge, a few roofs or plants. Actively remove crowds, repeated boats, dense buildings, signs, window panes, clutter and photographic noise.

Do not shrink the entire photo into the paper window, and do not carry over the original's full crop, subject proportions or information density.

Readjust the subject scale, secondary element positions and paper-white proportion so that the core object feels like a single separately saved observation, not a colored-pencil copy of the photo. Inside the small sketch, keep clearly uncolored areas, and let the strokes naturally stop before the torn edge.

The drawing medium should mainly be hesitant, fine, slightly imperfect graphite pencil lines, combined with dry colored pencil, pale watercolor pencil, local paper-surface scratches and broken strokes.

The palette is entirely extracted from the original photo and reduced to a limited color set, such as the grey-blue of sea and sky, teal-green, the warm stone and ochre of buildings and land, the grey-green of plants, and one very small signature color from the original photo.

Colors stay soft and faded, with a slightly old travel-sketch feel; do not fill the whole sketch with highly saturated color.

Add to the edge of the small sketch one extremely thin, slightly faded red or warm-colored pencil vertical line, and a small piece of grey-blue, teal or warm-grey paper scrap extracted from the photo's colors.

These elements are only for establishing paper-based editorial rhythm; they must not become a fixed brand mark, nor obscure the subject.

By default, the lower half includes a small set of accurate, clearly legible English text, placed in the continuous blank space on the right of or near the small sketch. The text includes:

1. A scene or imagery title made of 1–3 English words;
2. A field such as “COASTAL NOTE 01” or “TRAVEL NOTE 01”;
3. A short observation sentence of 5–12 English words, describing the real weather, action, architecture, boats, sea water or spatial relationships present in the photo.

The text uses restrained typewriter serif, old metal type or thin literary bookish typefaces, with slightly wide letter and line spacing; edges may show slight ink gaps and uneven pressure, as if printed directly onto coarse paper.

The main title must be clearly legible at normal chat-preview size; it must not shrink into a grey decorative line. Do not invent cities, dates, coordinates, quotations or historical information.

The overall mood is quiet and gentle, with real paper texture and a sense of looking back after the journey. The upper half keeps the light and sounds of the trip as it happens; the lower half is like picking one object from memory and redrawing it on a small piece of paper slipped into a book.

Avoid:
redrawing the full scene in the lower half;
material replacement at the same crop and scale;
full-sheet watercolor background;
oversized hand-drawn sketch;
multiple torn-paper cards;
dense journal collage;
smooth vector line art;
children's cartoon;
commercial travel icons;
piles of maps, stamps, shells and tape;
heavy drop shadows;
plastic 3D;
fake Chinese or gibberish text;
author names, signatures, logos, QR codes, URLs and watermarks.

How to use

Usage tip: Upload one travel photo; generate each poster separately, and check the lower hand-drawn sketch and English annotations against the real subjects in the photo.
