Prompt
A fishmonger's iced display at morning open, whole silver fish nested in crushed ice on a slanted stainless tray, clear eyes and wet scales catching overhead market light, lemon halves and parsley sprigs as garnish, blank price cards face-down or absent, cold blue-white colour from the ice, stainless tray edge in the foreground, no readable prices, no chalkboard specials, no text

How to use this prompt
Fish counters are wallpapered with prices in training data. Ban readable prices and chalkboard specials, and say price cards are face-down or absent — never "blank cards ready for prices," which still summons writing. Clear eyes and wet scales are the freshness diagnostics; cloudy eyes make the display look like prop food on ice. Overhead market light keeps the ice glittering; warm side light yellows the fish unappetisingly. Skip long species name stacks that invite tiny labels along the tray.
Variations to try
- Add shellfish: mussels and clams in a separate ice well at the front edge, still no signage
- Three-quarter view of the full counter with a hanging blank scale, fish trays receding
