    Dalle using chatgpt:

    Black and white close-up photo of the king of autumn’s mask. The moss, twigs, and feathers are displayed in intricate detail, revealing the texture and patterns. The mask’s elements seem to come alive, with every strand of moss and feather visible, giving a sense of depth and dimension.

    Made with DALL-E 3 and ChatGPT 4.

    Prompt:

    Photorealistic image of a porcelain mask representing a barn owl. The porcelain is glazed with a rich shade of purple, giving it a lustrous finish. Instead of traditional feathers, the mask boasts meticulously cut amethyst gemstones, each resembling the form of a feather. These gemstone feathers glisten in varying shades of purple, harmonizing with the glazed porcelain. The mask's facial details are accentuated with golden gilding, and the eyes emit a mesmerizing gold glow, standing out against the purple backdrop.

      That’s definitely a spooky mask. But it’s your prompt that makes it extra spooky, considering that this is supposed to be a face and not a mask.

      Thank you for the mask! It’s a good first effort and I hope you’ll continue to contribute!
      I haven’t used it myself, but I think the Bing Image Creator is free as well and it has a much better quality. Maybe you can try it out and see if it works for you?
