Travel magazine cover, a lone hiker in a red jacket standing on a rocky summit seen from behind, looking out over layers of misty blue mountain ridges at sunrise, golden light spilling across the valleys, masthead 'ROAM' in huge white bold sans-serif at the top partially behind the mountain peak, a few abstract cover lines along the left edge, vibrant yet natural colors, crisp detail, inspiring and adventurous mood. Avoid misspelled masthead, cluttered text, distorted figure, watermark.

Questions about this prompt

Which AI model is this magazine cover prompt written for?

It was written and tested for Ideogram, but the format buttons above rewrite it for Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, DALL·E, Flux, Ideogram and Leonardo, so you can paste it into the tool you already use.

Can I change the aspect ratio or style?

Yes. The prompt is set for 3:4, which suits this composition. In Midjourney change the --ar value; in other apps pick the size in settings. Use the remix panel to swap the style, lighting, camera or mood without rewriting the whole prompt.

Is this prompt free to use for commercial work?

The prompt text is free to copy, edit and use. Whether you can sell the image depends on the terms of the AI model that generates it, so check your plan on that platform before using results commercially.
