How to use this prompt
Cyberpunk alleys need layered light sources. Neon signs provide color, steam catches the glow, and wet pavement reflects both. The 16:9 frame suits a cinematic establishing shot. A single vehicle or doorway gives scale. Keep the signs readable only as shapes; invented text will garble. Too many colors make the scene carnival-like; limit to two dominant neons plus the dark background.
Variations to try
- Daytime cyberpunk alley — overcast sky with faded signs for a grungy look
- Rooftop cyberpunk view — neon city stretching into the distance
