How to use this prompt

"Dissolved into soft bokeh circles" is the guardrail — name real buildings or a skyline and DALL·E draws sharp architecture, which turns the wallpaper busy. The "deep navy darkness filling the upper third" is deliberate lock-screen space; keep it or the clock fights the bokeh for attention. Ask for the in-focus droplets slightly off-center so notification cards do not cover them. For a desktop version, request 16:9 with "bokeh drifting toward the right edge, dark glass on the left" so icons sit on quiet glass.

Variations to try

  • Warm version — make every bokeh circle "amber and gold streetlight tones" for a cozier lock screen
  • Neon version — swap the city glow for "pink and teal neon sign reflections" and deepen the shadows
