Turn this portrait into a double exposure image, blending my profile silhouette with a [FOREST / CITY SKYLINE / STARRY SKY] inside it. Keep my face recognisable.

Soft gradients, white background, artistic and moody, high detail.

Use a plain light background in your original portrait for the cleanest blend.

What you will get

Your profile silhouette filled with a forest, city skyline or starry sky, with soft gradients on a white background, in an artistic and moody style.

Why it works

Double exposure blends two images, and it works best with a clean profile silhouette, so the prompt places the scene inside your outline against a white background. Choosing a forest, a skyline or a starry sky sets the mood of the whole piece. Soft gradients let the two images melt together while keeping your face recognisable.

Common mistake

The profile is unclear.

Fix: Use a side-on photo with a clean outline. A front view blends badly with a second image.

Also watch for
  • The inner scene is too busy. Pick one scene and ask for fewer details, so the shape of your head still reads.
  • The background is not plain. Start from a photo against a light wall, as the tip says, or the blend gets muddy.
Try a variation: make it a black and white version

Ask for a monochrome version with deep contrast and a single faint colour in the inner scene.

Still not right? Reply with this

Keep my silhouette. Make a second version with [OTHER SCENE] inside it instead, so I can choose between the two.
