How to use it
This prompt works best with the couple, the alley and the scrapbook details kept intact, since those carry the nostalgic travel feel. You can swap the couple for a different pair, a solo traveler or a pet, and change the town by renaming the setting. It was shared as a GPT Image 2 prompt, so keep the double-parentheses around the couple and the pastel tones as written. The finished image suits a wall print, a phone wallpaper or a card for a trip anniversary.
