A Stream Through a Forest Clearing, Watercolor's Breath
The light alone is volumetric — a slow push-in on the camera would make the stream's path even more compelling.
✍️ The counterintuitive instruction not to draw outlines is the real point — edges stay crisp without being traced, and the watercolor's breathable quality rides entirely on that negative prompt; volumetric light alone wouldn't be enough.
