AI-art lover Mohammed Rashid shares a set of 15 ready-to-use prompts for Gemini (and its “Nano Banana” model) to create cinematic black-and-white images.

These prompts focus on light, shadow, texture, and mood rather than colour.

Why Black & White Still Works

Gemini AI Prompts
  • Monochrome removes colour distractions and highlights emotion, form and texture.
  • Rashid says Gemini’s image model “understands composition, lighting and mood in ways that actually make sense.” 
  • By giving clear prompts that specify lighting style, subject pose and mood, users get richer results.

How To Use These Prompts

  • Pick a prompt description, substitute the subject (for example: “a dancer mid-pose” or “an elderly street vendor with textured skin”).
  • Upload your photo or let Gemini generate from scratch. Use the model’s mobile or web interface.
  • Experiment with different lighting cues (e.g., “Rembrandt lighting,” “chiaroscuro lighting”), lens or film references for mood.

This trend shows how AI is bringing professional‐style photography prompts within reach of many creators.

Whether you’re editing your own self-portraits, building branding visuals or playing with creative photo shoots, the right prompt can turn a good photo into a striking one.
