## What it is

A short prompt that asks a model to describe an attached image as a JSON prompt: aesthetic, style, elements and aspect ratio, with text, ratio and key imagery labelled at the top so they are easy to change.

## What it’s for

Turn an existing image into an editable JSON prompt template, then edit the JSON for precise changes.

## Benefits

- Key elements are labelled at the top of the JSON
- Detailed enough to recreate the image closely

## Caveats

- Needs a model that accepts an image, and you attach the image.

## Prompt

```text
I need you to create a JSON prompt for me. The prompt will describe the visual aesthetic, style, elements and aspect ratio in the attached image. Make sure it is detailed and accurate enough that it would almost perfectly replicate the image.

Important: Key elements such as text, aspect ratio, and specific imagery should be clearly labelled at the top of the JSON so that users can modify the prompt without having to search through the code
```
