Teal and orange split-tone across glossy grooves, figures walking the label. Their shadows are what fix them to the disc.

## Prompt

Copy the text below exactly into Workroom with Nano Banana 2 selected to reproduce this result.

Surreal photorealistic macro shot of a vinyl record seen from above at a slight angle. The record surface fills the frame, showing detailed circular grooves and a strong glossy sheen. The vinyl has a striking two-tone look: a teal/blue-green section sweeping across the top/right and a warm red/orange section across the lower/left, with a smooth gradient between them.

Near the center-right is the golden label area around the spindle hole, slightly textured and matte compared to the glossy grooves. The spindle hole is visible.

On the record surface, several tiny miniature human figures (silhouetted, like small pedestrians) are standing and walking, spaced along the grooves. Each figure casts a long soft shadow and a faint reflection on the glossy vinyl, enhancing the “miniature world” illusion. The scene feels like a scaled-down urban moment happening on a spinning record, but captured as a still macro photograph.

Lighting: warm directional light (golden hour / studio warm key) creating specular highlights and bright streaks on the grooves; softer fill light to keep detail in darker areas.
Composition & optics: vertical frame; shallow-to-medium depth of field (some figures sharper, others slightly softened); macro realism, high detail, cinematic texture.

Color grading 

Overall tone: warm cinematic “golden glow” with a cool teal counterbalance.

Contrast: medium-high; keep deep shadows in grooves but preserve texture (no crushed blacks).

Saturation: medium; emphasize warm red/orange and teal color blocking; keep gold label rich but not oversaturated.

Highlights: strong specular highlights with slight bloom/halation on the brightest glints; avoid blown-out hotspots.

Shadows: warm-to-neutral shadows, slightly brown/amber; maintain separation for the miniature figures — silhouettes.

Micro-texture: clarity/texture moderately high to show groove lines; keep reflections smooth.

Finishing: subtle film grain; light vignette to focus on the center label; slight matte curve optional for a filmic roll-off.

Palette keywords: teal — orange cinematic, warm gloss, golden label, macro vinyl grooves, miniature people, photoreal surreal.
