Get a better result

What you will get

The same sunset photo with deeper orange or pink in the sky, a warm glow at the horizon and soft colour reflected on the water or ground, with nothing added or moved.

Why it works

A colour boost should stay believable, so the prompt deepens the chosen tone, adds a glow near the horizon and softens reflections. It rules out extra objects and new composition. Asking for subtle, as the tip says, fixes an over-the-top result.

Common mistake

The whole photo turns orange.

Fix: Ask for the boost in the sky only, and keep people, buildings and foliage close to their natural colours.

Also watch for
  • Clouds and objects are added. Repeat “do not add anything” and ask for the same clouds, only richer in colour.
  • The sky looks painted. Ask for a subtle result, as the tip says, and keep the gradient smooth, not banded.
Try a variation: make a blue hour version

Ask for the minutes just after sunset instead, with deep blue sky, a thin orange line at the horizon and lights turning on.

Still not right? Reply with this

Make the colour boost half as strong. It should still look like a real sunset at phone size.
