FLUX 3 Image Klein on M1 Max: 160s T2I, BFL Sample Reproduced

A wide-angle wildlife photograph of a red fox standing alert in a snow-covered forest clearing at golden hour. The fox is centered in the frame, its thick orange winter coat contrasting with the fresh white snow, breath visible in the cold air. Snow-laden pine trees fill the softly blurred background, and low warm sunlight rakes across the scene from the left, casting long blue shadows.

Full English text for the face close-up

Studio fashion portrait photograph captured on a Hasselblad medium-format camera, tight head-and-shoulders framing against an unmarked mustard seamless paper backdrop. A Japanese female model in her twenties with light skin stands just left of center, facing the camera with her shoulders turned a few degrees toward frame-left. Her straight black hair is tied back neatly, leaving her face and the high folded collar of an oversized grey wool coat clearly visible. She has a softly oval face, dark eyes, a small straight nose, smooth even skin, understated makeup, closed lips forming a restrained friendly smile, and a direct gaze. The grey coat fills the lower frame with broad wool folds and wide lapels. One hard key light from the upper left strikes her forehead, cheek, hair and the raised ridges of the wool, producing bright highlights along the left side while the right side falls into charcoal-grey shade. A crisp-edged shadow extends behind her across the mustard paper toward the lower right. The seamless backdrop has a matte surface with gentle tonal falloff. Her face is sharply focused, with the background clean and uncluttered. The composition contains only the model, coat, mustard background and shadow, with negative space above and to the right.

Studio fashion photograph, eye-level medium-format portrait with an 85mm portrait lens, framed from the chest upward against a seamless vivid turquoise background filling the entire image. Centered in the frame is one 21-year-old Japanese woman with fair skin and a clear youthful oval face, facing the camera directly. Her lips form a calm, barely-there closed-mouth smile. She has softly almond-shaped dark brown eyes, a small straight nose, smooth even matte skin, and restrained peach makeup across her cheeks and lips. Her black hair is arranged into two small sculptural knots, one above each side of her head, with a few fine wisps curving along her temples and cheeks. She wears a crisp oversized white collared shirt with broad lapels and a structured pointed collar. Two delicate layered silver necklaces rest above the collar: a fine chain with a tiny round pendant and a second chain with a slender crescent-shaped pendant. Large frontal beauty-dish softbox lighting and broad fill produce luminous, even illumination across her face, with soft shadows beneath her chin and around the knots. Her eyes are sharply focused, while the skin retains gentle tonal transitions and polished editorial retouching without oily highlights. The vivid turquoise, white, peach, black, and silver palette remains clean and saturated, with generous turquoise space surrounding her head and shoulders.

Full-color Japanese anime illustration with clean cel-shaded coloring and crisp linework, showing one adult woman standing head to toe against a plain white background. She faces forward and looks directly at the viewer, centered in a full-body composition with generous white space around her. She is a woman in her twenties with fair skin, large blue eyes, and very long blonde hair falling past her waist in smooth, layered strands. Her hair spreads over her shoulders and down her back, with several loose locks framing her face. She wears a long white robe extending to her ankles, with wide sleeves and intricate gold embroidery running along the collar, cuffs, front edges, and hem. A short white capelet with gold trim rests across her shoulders, its pointed edges hanging behind her upper arms. A wide metallic-gold sash wraps around her waist, tied at the front with a structured ornamental knot and short ribbon ends. Her long sleeves hang beside her body, one hand resting near the sash and the other relaxed at her side. Below the sash, the complete white robe falls in straight folds to the floor, ending in a broad gold-embroidered border. A short capelet and the robe’s hem reveal both feet, which wear white traditional slippers with gold edging. Her posture is upright, with both feet fully shown and set a small distance apart. Even, shadowless lighting keeps the white background pure and the gold details clearly defined.

Full-color Japanese anime fantasy illustration with crisp cel-shaded coloring, sweeping motion lines, and a wide sunset composition. In the center foreground, one adult white woman in her twenties with fair skin, large blue eyes, and very long blonde hair runs through a grassy field in a full-body dynamic pose, both feet visible. Her torso leans forward, her left leg reaches ahead while her right leg extends behind her, and the hem of her robe lifts around her stride. She wears a long white robe covered with intricate gold embroidery along the collar, cuffs, and lower hem, a short capelet fastened at the shoulders, a wide metallic gold sash around her waist, and long flowing sleeves. The capelet streams behind her as she runs, while the robe’s long sleeves whip outward in the wind. Her blonde hair sweeps high toward the left in thick windblown strands, with loose locks crossing her face and trailing behind her shoulders. Her focused eyes look toward the path ahead, and her mouth is set in a determined expression. Small seed heads and blades of grass bend around her boots, with several stalks crossing the lower foreground. In the distance, a grey stone castle with towers, battlements, and narrow spires rises above the field. The horizon glows orange and red beneath a dramatic sunset sky filled with layered violet, crimson, and amber clouds, their undersides edged in bright copper light. Long bands of shadow stretch across the field, while the woman’s white robe catches the warm rim light along its embroidered edges.

Upsampled English sent to FLUX 3:

Full-color outdoor landscape photograph, wide eye-level view under soft natural daylight, showing a Japanese garden in autumn. In the foreground, a broad koi pond fills the lower half of the scene, its dark green water reflecting patches of pale sky and the red-orange maple canopy. Several orange and white koi swim beneath the surface: a large orange koi curves near the center, two white koi with orange patches glide beside it, and smaller orange-and-white fish gather near the reeds along the left bank. Fallen red maple leaves float across the water among scattered ripples, while a few leaves rest on the pond’s mossy stone edge. On the right, an irregular path of flat grey stepping stones follows the pond’s curve, bordered by low moss, small ferns, and clusters of red maple leaves. A weathered wooden pavilion stands beside the path in the midground, with dark timber posts, a broad tiled roof, and open railings facing the pond. Its shaded interior contains a simple wooden bench and a small stone lantern. On the left, a low stone path winds behind the pavilion and disappears among the trees. Colorful maple trees rise across the background in dense layers of crimson, vermilion, orange, and yellow foliage, with exposed dark branches showing through gaps in the leaves. A slender Japanese maple leans over the pond from the upper left, its branches extending above the water. Rounded rocks, clipped shrubs, and a small stone lantern sit near the pavilion, while the distant garden fades into muted green hills beneath a pale overcast sky.

FLUX.2’s short prompt (the same text was also fed into FLUX 3’s official upsampler):

portrait of a young Japanese woman in her 30s, professional photography, natural light, soft skin texture, 50mm lens, shallow depth of field

Upsampled English sent to FLUX 3:

Close-up outdoor portrait photograph of a young Japanese woman in her thirties, photographed at eye level with a 50mm lens and shallow depth of field. She faces the camera in a head-and-shoulders composition, her face placed just left of center and turned a few degrees toward the light. She has fair skin with visible pores, fine lines around her eyes, and a light sheen across her cheeks, straight dark brown hair cut to shoulder length, and wispy strands resting near her temples. Her dark brown eyes look directly into the lens, with relaxed brows and a closed mouth forming a restrained half-smile. She wears a charcoal-gray linen blazer over a plain ivory blouse, with a small silver stud earring in her left ear. Natural daylight enters from the left through a nearby window or open shade, illuminating her face with broad highlights and leaving a mild shadow along the right side of her nose and jaw. The background falls out of focus into muted green foliage and a pale cream wall, with no distinct objects. A few loose strands of hair cross the blurred background, while the focus remains on her eyes, eyelashes, and the fine texture of her skin.

Natural-language text passed to the official upsampler for the additional beauty photo condition:

Polished Japanese beauty-editorial portrait photograph of an adult woman age 22 to 25. Conventionally attractive youthful face, gentle friendly smile, straight dark hair, subtle flattering natural makeup, smooth even matte skin with restrained highlights. Cream blouse, green park blurred behind her, chest-up composition, eye-level 50mm lens. Large softbox-like overcast daylight, soft low-contrast shadows and natural color. The skin should look smooth and lifelike without a wet or shiny finish.

Its upsampled English:

Full-color outdoor portrait photograph, chest-up composition at eye level with a 50mm lens, showing a Japanese woman aged 23 centered against a blurred green park. She has fair skin, a conventionally attractive youthful face, straight dark brown hair falling neatly past her shoulders, and a few fine strands resting near her temples. Her lips form a gentle closed-mouth smile, with the corners of her mouth raised and her dark brown eyes directed toward the camera. Her makeup is restrained and natural: an even complexion, softly defined brows, muted brown eyeliner, light mascara, a small wash of peach blush, and a muted rose lip color. Her skin has a smooth, even matte finish with restrained highlights across the forehead, cheeks, and nose, retaining fine facial texture without a wet or shiny surface. She wears a simple cream blouse with a modest round neckline and a narrow fold at the collar. Broad, diffused overcast daylight from a large softbox-like source illuminates her face evenly, producing low-contrast shadows beneath her chin and nose. Behind her, the park dissolves into broad out-of-focus masses of green foliage, pale tree trunks, and a muted cream path, with no distinct background details. The natural color palette remains balanced, with warm cream, neutral skin tones, and subdued greens.

Input to the official upsampler

A clean Japanese magazine beauty portrait photograph of one adult woman aged 21. She has a youthful softly oval face, smooth cheeks, a gently tapered jaw, large softly almond-shaped dark eyes, a small straight nose, and a warm subtle smile. Long glossy black hair with a natural side part falls over her shoulders. She wears a light beige tailored blazer over a plain ivory crew-neck top and delicate natural makeup. Three-quarter upper-body portrait, shoulders angled a little to camera-right, eyes looking just to camera-left. A bright cream indoor setting with a softly blurred window on the left. Gentle broad daylight, high-key exposure, soft shadows, natural color, smooth even matte skin, and a flattering 50mm shallow-depth-of-field photograph. The result should look like a polished but natural portrait for a Japanese fashion magazine.

Full-color indoor beauty photograph for a Japanese fashion magazine, a three-quarter upper-body portrait shot with a 50mm lens and shallow depth of field. One 21-year-old Japanese woman with fair skin fills the center and right side of the frame from the upper chest upward. She has a youthful, softly oval face, smooth cheeks, a gently tapered jaw, large dark eyes with softly almond-shaped lids, a small straight nose, and a warm closed-mouth smile with the corners of her lips raised. Her long, glossy black hair is parted naturally to one side and falls in smooth sections over both shoulders, with a few fine strands resting near her temple. She wears a light beige tailored blazer over a plain ivory crew-neck top, the lapel forming a clean diagonal across her shoulder. Her makeup is delicate and natural, with an even matte complexion, softly defined brows, muted peach blush, fine brown eyeliner, and a sheer rose-beige lip color. Her shoulders angle toward camera-right while her head turns back toward the viewer and her eyes look just to camera-left. Broad daylight from the left creates a high-key exposure, even illumination across her face, and pale shadows beneath her jaw and nose. Behind her is a bright cream interior. On the left, a large window dissolves into a soft white and pale blue blur, with no distinct exterior details. The remaining background is an uncluttered cream wall, leaving generous open space around her head for a restrained magazine portrait layout.

For the neutral expression, only a warm closed-mouth smile with the corners of her lips raised in the English above was replaced with a calm neutral expression with her lips gently closed and her cheeks relaxed. All other wording plus 1024×1024, 16 steps, seed 7, shift 16, the noise layout, and VAE FP32 were the same.

Eye-level portrait, muted cream and warm brown colors.

Full-color indoor portrait photograph in natural overcast daylight, shot at eye level with a close head-and-shoulders composition. A 21-year-old Japanese woman with fair skin sits beside a large café window, her head and upper torso filling most of the frame. She has a softly rounded youthful face, shoulder-length dark brown hair with a few loose strands resting near her cheeks, dark brown eyes, and a small closed-mouth smile with relaxed corners. She looks just toward the camera. She wears a cream cable-knit sweater with a ribbed neckline and holds a plain white ceramic cup securely in both hands at the lower center of her chest, one hand wrapped around each side. The window glass rises behind her head and shoulders, covered with scattered raindrops and several narrow rivulets running downward. Soft grey daylight passing through the wet glass illuminates her face evenly, leaving gentle shadows beneath her chin and nose and a natural matte finish across her skin. On the right, the window continues into a blurred view of the wet street outside. Warm amber shop lights dissolve into round golden highlights among indistinct dark storefront shapes and muted reflections on the pavement. The palette remains muted cream, warm brown, and subdued grey, with the woman’s face held in sharp focus and the exterior reduced to soft light and color.
