The scene happen in the school courtyard during recess. on the foreground, a blonde catholic girl wearing a blue dress sits alone on a bench as no other kid want to talk with her. It's nice fall day, the tree already have their full autumn colours Using Flux Dev

A busy coffee shop in metal world.

Made with comfyui. The workflow is embedded in this (Catbox) picture.

PromptThe photograph captures a lively scene inside a heavy metal-themed coffee shop. The décor blends industrial elements with musical motifs: exposed brick walls adorned with vintage guitars, vinyl records, and posters of legendary metal bands. Pendant lights shaped like inverted microphones hang from the ceiling, casting a warm glow over the room.

At the center, a barista prepares drinks behind a counter designed to resemble a concert stage, complete with miniature amplifiers and decorative spotlights. The barista, a young woman with bright blue hair styled into spiky tufts, wears a black apron over a T-shirt featuring a symphonic metal band. Her arms display tattoos of musical notes and mythical creatures.

Seated at a large wooden table, a group of friends enjoys their beverages. One man represents death metal style with long dark hair, a black T-shirt bearing an intricate band logo, and a leather jacket adorned with spikes. Beside him, a woman embodies Kawaii metal fashion, wearing a frilly black and pink dress with lace accents and high twin ponytails decorated with colorful ribbons. Another friend showcases fairy metal attire—a flowing silver dress with subtle glitter and a delicate tiara resting on her wavy blonde hair.

In a cozy corner, a family gathers around a low table. The father, with a Viking metal appearance, has a braided beard and wears a tunic-style shirt with Nordic patterns. The mother, reflecting goth metal style, is dressed in a long black velvet coat over a corset dress, her dark hair accented with a lace headpiece. Their children—a boy and a girl—are engaged in coloring activities. The boy, about seven, wears a cape over a T-shirt featuring a dragon, embodying power metal. The girl, around five, dons a sparkly dress with fairy wings attached, representing fairy metal.

On the walls, shelves display an array of mugs and merchandise, including skull-shaped cups and T-shirts with various band logos. Patrons sip from mugs adorned with metal band insignias or intricate designs. The tables feature centerpieces made from repurposed vinyl records and small vases holding black roses.

In the background, a small stage hosts a solo guitarist playing an acoustic rendition of a classic metal song. The musician wears a simple outfit—jeans and a T-shirt—but his fingers skillfully navigate the strings of his guitar, which is decorated with stickers.

Other customers add to the diverse scene. A man with a steampunk twist wears goggles atop his hat and sips coffee while reading a book. A woman with electric green hair and cyber metal attire works on a laptop covered in band stickers. Near the entrance, a chalkboard menu lists creatively named drinks like "Espresso of Destruction" and "Latte of the Valkyries."

This photograph was taken using a Canon EOS R5 mirrorless camera with a 24-70mm f/2.8 lens, capturing the rich details and vibrant personalities within the café.
