How to use this prompt
The magic depends on two light sources staying balanced: the blue plankton and the starry sky. If the sky is too bright, the glow looks painted on. "Long exposure look" tells Flux to smooth the waves into soft blue trails rather than frozen sparkles. Keep the palm-tree silhouettes minimal; too much foliage competes with the plankton. Place the brightest plankton glow near the wet sand where the waves recede, because that is where the effect reads as real. 16:9 gives the shoreline room to breathe. If the sand turns purple, add "dark sand" to the prompt and lower cfg to 3.0.
Variations to try
- Footsteps version: add glowing blue footprints trailing along the wet sand
- Boat version: include a small wooden boat pulled ashore reflecting the plankton light
