Copies the prompt, then opens the app:
Edit the uploaded photo of me, an adult. Keep my face, skin tone, hairstyle, expression and features exactly as in the photo; do not lighten or smooth the skin. Show me kneeling at a home doorstep lighting a long row of glowing clay agal lamps during Karthigai Deepam, dusk light, soft flame bokeh, warm tones, realistic. If no photo is uploaded, show an original smiling adult instead.
Works best with a family photo taken at your doorstep.

- Choose a photo with light on your face, not a dark room, so the AI can keep your features when it adds flame glow.
- Lamps sometimes float or look uneven; add 'agal lamps in a straight row on the doorstep, each with a small steady flame'.
- Change the number of lamps, or add a kolam by the step and a brass lamp for a richer scene.
- Real lamps are a fire risk near clothing, so keep this as an image idea and light lamps carefully in real life.
- A wide 16:9 ratio shows the full row of lamps, and a 4:5 crop works for a WhatsApp greeting.
