Prompt
Use the uploaded photo as the reference for the pet. Keep it an animal, not a person: preserve its breed features, coat colours and markings, eye colour and ear shape as closely as the model permits; check the result against the reference.
Scene: the deck of an old wooden sailing ship on a calm turquoise sea with small islands, sails full of wind.
Pose: the pet sitting beside the ship's wheel, one paw on it, looking ahead.
Clothing: a small captain's hat tilted to one side.
Light: bright sea sunlight, sparkles on the water.
Style: photorealistic storybook adventure photo, real fur detail, warm colours.
Format: horizontal 3:2
Avoid: turning the pet into a person, changing breed or markings, skull symbols, adding people, skin lightening, extra paws, text, logos, watermarks.

Customise

For example: a calm turquoise sea with small islands.

For example: a small captain's hat.
