This image inspired by @CaylaCatz who shared this on NC: https://creator.nightcafe.studio/creation/iRUK4xxtudFDyzO4Nysa The title is 'Vellichor'. Me being curious me, I wondered if that was a place, a person, what it meant? Turned out to be 'the unique, wistful, and nostalgic emotion felt when browsing in a used bookstore' We had a fascinating conversation about words that inspired me to compose a prompt entirely of such words, at least words I'd never heard before. Not surprising that GPT 1.5's vocabulary is better than mine. The image reflects the meaning of most of the words in the prompt: violescent light limnes the scripturient in cimmerian vellichor, ensorcelled by ebrious bibliosmia

Wow! I love this. and the prompt is so cool. I'm improving! I only had to look up one word this time " ebrious". I love the idea of using ai art images as a way to introduce and reinforce new vocabulary.
