Rabbit Studio Portrait on Cream

Prompt
Studio portrait of a lop-eared rabbit sitting in three-quarter view against a soft cream backdrop, lit from behind so the translucent ears glow with fine veining visible through them, a soft fill light from the front keeping the face and whiskers fully detailed, dense fur with individual guard hairs catching light at the shoulder, a dark round eye holding one clear catchlight, nose and whiskers sharp, calm relaxed posture, shallow depth of field, no props, no text

How to use this prompt
Rabbit ears are translucent, and lighting them from behind is what gives the animal visible biology — veins showing through thin skin. Skip it and even a technically clean render looks like a soft toy on a backdrop. Backlight alone is not enough, though: it throws the face into shadow, so a front fill has to be specified in the same breath or you lose the whiskers and eye that carry the portrait. Choose cream rather than white for the ground, because a pale rabbit merges into white and the ear glow needs something slightly darker to read against.
Variations to try
- Dark version: a black rabbit on charcoal with the backlight doing the ear glow and edge work
- Add gentle motion — mid-hop with ears lifted and one paw off the ground, same lighting scheme
