Prompt
An abstract bokeh photograph of a defocused night light field, dozens of circular and hexagonal out-of-focus light orbs floating across a dark background, the orbs in warm gold, amber, soft red and pale blue, varying sizes from large soft circles to tiny pinpricks, a few orbs overlapping to create brighter merged highlights, clean circular bokeh edges with no chromatic aberration, a subtle dark vignette around the frame, extremely shallow depth of field, no text, no signature, no recognizable objects

How to use this prompt
"Circular and hexagonal out-of-focus light orbs" is the bokeh-shape cue — the hexagonal shape comes from the camera's aperture blades, and naming both shapes sells the read as a real lens rather than a filter; without the shape cue DALL·E renders round dots. "Varying sizes from large soft circles to tiny pinpricks" is the depth distribution that sells the shallow depth of field; uniform sizes read as a pattern. "Orbs overlapping to create brighter merged highlights" is the additive-light behaviour that real bokeh produces; without overlap it reads as scattered confetti. "Clean circular bokeh edges" is the lens-quality cue that keeps the orbs crisp.
Variations to try
- Swap the warm palette for a cool blue-and-silver bokeh field for a winter-night variant
- Change to heart-shaped bokeh by naming a heart-shaped aperture for a romantic abstract
