## Prompt

```text
Create a raw smartphone photo of a laptop screen, not a screenshot. Aspect ratio 3:4, high-angle downward POV from someone standing over a desk at night. The laptop display fills most of the frame, with a narrow strip of black keyboard and trackpad visible at the bottom. Strong realism: visible RGB subpixel grid, subtle moire bands, small dust specks, faint fingerprints, uneven glass reflections, handheld phone noise, slight perspective skew, no studio polish. macOS dark mode. Background app: {argument name="background app" default="Apple Notes with a late-night study note titled \"Design Critique\" and short visible bullets: \"layout\", \"lighting\", \"source links\", \"ship tomorrow\""}. Foreground app: {foreground_app}. A second small Finder window with image thumbnails is partly visible behind it. Make it feel like an accidental real phone photo of a working laptop screen. No real-person likeness, no beauty filter, no perfect UI, no screenshot, no watermark, no cartoon, no 3D render.
```

## Variables

Replace each `{variable}` before you paste the prompt.

| Variable | Label | Example |
|---|---|---|
| `{foreground_app}` | foreground app | FaceTime live preview window floating lower-right, showing a fictional adult man in his 20s sitting at a cluttered desk, |
