## Editor's note

The shadow is the subject: a low angle and one window light turn a plain railing into long angled shadows across matte plaster.

## Prompt

Copy the text below exactly into Workroom with Z-Image selected to reproduce this result.

A stairwell in a bright house, no people. A straight flight of stairs climbs diagonally through the frame, shot from a low angle at the bottom step, looking up. The wall is smooth plaster in warm cream, the stair treads and landing floor are dusty terracotta tile, a slim wooden handrail and round-post balusters in deep ochre. Low late afternoon sun enters through a tall window out of frame on the right and throws the railing's shadow across the cream wall as a bold row of slanted diagonal stripes, with one long beam of light lying across the steps. Large simple shapes, clean edges, wide shot with the whole stairwell in focus. Quiet, warm, empty, the shadow is the subject. Matte plaster, nothing on the wall, no text, no logos, no watermark.
