“The Quiet Machinery of God”
#Midjourney #AiArt gpt5 and mj7
Human explorers traverse a desolate path beneath towering, root-like organisms that stretch across the sky. The setting sun bathes everything in eerie gold, merging beauty with dread—a haunting vision of alien infestation. Three travelers walk under a blood-red sky as massive, jellyfish-like machines hover above, suspended by long mechanical tendrils. The minimal landscape and harsh red palette evoke cosmic dread and surveillance. Silhouetted figures wander beneath colossal spider-like creatures glowing with red light beneath an enormous crimson sun. The scene feels apocalyptic—suggesting an alien dominion or the last days of Earth. Two grotesque, sinewy monsters with gaping maws and needle-like teeth lurk at the entrance of a decaying building. The atmosphere is claustrophobic and nightmarish, like a glimpse into an abandoned world overrun by predatory horrors.

'Beneath Suns That Shouldn’t Rise'
#Midjourney #AiArt
mj7 and gpt5
A bleak valley of towering obsidian peaks under a massive full moon. The lone wanderer’s path winds through cracked, dusty ground, surrounded by silence and the weight of celestial darkness. A dark, desolate landscape under a stormy sky, with jagged spires rising from cracked terrain. A fractured, glowing sun or moon looms overhead, casting eerie yellow light across the barren ground. A cloaked figure walks across golden dunes beneath a vast cosmic sky. A massive, glowing planet dominates the horizon, with black spires piercing through the desert haze — a vision of cosmic desolation. An immense, otherworldly canyon drenched in golden light. Towering monolithic structures pierce the sky as a lone traveler moves through the sands, dwarfed by the monumental scale around them.

A futuristic cityscape filled with towering pyramid-like structures rises above a glowing river under a fiery orange sky. The atmosphere feels ancient yet advanced, with sailing ships drifting through the water. → Caption: “A sunset civilization of pyramids and metal.” The classic Egyptian pyramids stand tall against a dramatic, flame-colored sky. The scene feels timeless and powerful, with the ancient stones glowing in the evening light. → Caption: “Echoes of eternity beneath burning skies.” Gigantic metallic pyramids rise from a vast body of water, their reflections shimmering in the golden light of a colossal sun. Futuristic ships float calmly on the glowing surface. → Caption: “Suns and steel over a sea of gold.” A barren desert dotted with towering monoliths and angular ruins bathed in deep orange light. The scene feels both post-apocalyptic and mythic. → Caption: “The last monuments of a forgotten age.”

more of The White Arm...original prompt inspired by Frank Belknap Long, The Space Eaters
#Midjourney #AIArt
A long, pale, serpentine limb snakes along a forest path before curling upward into a claw-like hand. The surrounding woods are dim, making the glowing white form look like it’s alive and searching. A massive white hand, half-root and half-flesh, extends from a tangle of vines and roots deep within a dense forest. It seems ancient and sentient, as if part of the forest’s hidden anatomy. A colossal arm, textured like bark yet disturbingly organic, arches over a shadowy forest path. Its skeletal hand reaches downward, poised between invitation and threat. A stark white arm, with sinewy and veined texture, emerges eerily from the split bark of a tree. Its unnatural pallor contrasts sharply with the rough, dark wood — as though the tree itself has birthed something human.

"Desire" #Midjourney #aiArt
mj7 and gpt-5
A fallen tree with bark resembling human skin ends in a hand-like shape, its fingers splayed toward the light filtering through the forest canopy. It blurs the line between tree and creature. A long, pale limb juts out from a tangled mass of undergrowth, appearing lifeless yet strangely animate — like the forest itself is growing appendages. A pale, ghostly arm extends from the dense, dark thicket along a narrow woodland trail. The arm fades into mist, giving it an almost spectral presence in the shadowy environment. A surreal, skeletal arm with exaggeratedly long bones reaches out over a forest path, its bony fingers stretching toward the viewer. The atmosphere is eerie, as if something unnatural has merged with the forest.

Zero-Waste Apocalypse
#Midjourney #AiArt
mj7 and gpt5
A misty, desolate landscape surrounds a dark pool. Figures resembling twisted, robed silhouettes rise from the mud, encircling the reflective water in a haunting ritualistic formation. A crater-like pit of bubbling mud with root-like tendrils and organic shapes reaching upward, as though alive. The surface churns violently, suggesting something stirring below. A chaotic eruption of mud and sinewy, humanoid forms bursting from a swirling vortex. The figures appear half-formed, suspended mid-motion as if climbing from the pit. A grim pit filled with skulls and root-like tendrils, as if human remains have fused with the earth. The muddy ground oozes with an eerie, organic texture — a fusion of decay and growth.

“The New Tenants”
#Midjourney #AiArt
mj 7 and gpt5
Three pale rats feed near the wreckage of dark industrial buildings, silhouetted against a sepia-orange sky. Power lines crisscross above them. Mood: stark contrast of life and desolation. Three rats forage in the middle of a ruined street lined with wooden shacks. Overhead, thick orange-tinted clouds loom, giving the scene a toxic twilight feel. Mood: grim survival amid decay. A group of four rats scavenge in the debris-strewn center of a destroyed city street. Telephone poles and broken structures recede into the smoky horizon. Mood: quiet persistence in a ruined world. A desolate urban landscape under a dark, cloudy sky and an eclipsed moon. Crumbling buildings line the street, and two large rats stand in the rubble. Mood: eerie, post-apocalyptic stillness.

Intruder patrol
#midjourney #AIArt mj 7 and gpt 4.1
A shadowy, foggy landscape with towering, tripod-like alien creatures emitting bright lights from their tops, illuminating the night. A lone human stands in the foreground, dwarfed by the surreal beings. A single, jellyfish-like creature with glowing eyes stands on thin, spindly legs in the middle of a deserted road. The night is thick with fog, and a power pole looms in the distance. Three towering, tentacled entities cross a barren landscape beneath a starry sky, their long legs stretching towards the earth. A lone figure stands facing them in the desolate terrain. A skeletal, bird/insect-like creature with a glowing eye hovers in the darkness. Its elongated limbs and tattered wings are backlit by a haunting, distant light.

Whispers of a Forgotten World
#Midjourney mj7 and gpt5
I would have called this one 'Who are you'
A lone figure stands beneath towering, monstrous plant-like creatures with spherical heads full of sharp teeth, emerging from barren ground under a foggy sky. Mood: Desolate, surreal horror. Three tall, jellyfish-like entities with single, shiny eyes float eerily along a dark, empty road while a small human figure walks along the road. Mood: Cosmic dread, insignificance. Three spindly, humanoid beings with fishlike heads emit dim, golden light from their eyes as they stand in misty darkness. Mood: Alien melancholy, quiet observation. A skeletal, humanoid figure with a glowing blue eye orb for a head stands against a gradient sky, surrounded by tangled wires and roots. Mood: Post-apocalyptic reverence, machine-spirit aesthetic.

“Roots of the Void” —
An exploration of decay, rebirth, and isolation in the silence between earth and stars.
#Midjourney mj7 and gpt5
gpt5 named it 'roots of the void'; I would have used 'time's arrow' as the series title
a skeletal form, partly draped in tattered remnants, sits slumped on a rock. The skull appears cracked, and faint plant life grows nearby — a contrast between decay and persistence. Tone: Decay meeting life, fragility. A skull with long, root-like tendrils descends into the earth, merging bone and soil. It evokes both rebirth and consumption — a body returning to the ground, or perhaps being born from it. Tone: Fusion of death and growth. A humanoid figure made of roots kneels on barren terrain under a floating celestial sphere. The composition suggests surrender or meditation beneath an indifferent cosmos. Tone: Cosmic solitude, transcendence. A skeletal figure crouches on a rocky ledge under a pitch-black sky. The posture feels contemplative, almost mournful — as if the being is weighed down by gravity and emptiness. Tone: Isolation, reflection, desolation.

“Survivors of the Waste” — A haunting glimpse into urban decay, where nature adapts to humanity’s neglect. #Midjourney
A narrow, debris-filled street lined with dilapidated shacks under a golden sunset sky. Two large rats scavenge among piles of trash while birds circle above. → “Twilight Scavengers” Two rats feed on scraps atop a crumbling rooftop overlooking a sprawling, trash-strewn slum with the distant glow of a city skyline beneath stormy clouds. → “Edge of the City” Three rats pick at refuse in a filthy, flooded alley of a rundown settlement, with a dramatic, cloud-filled sunset casting a somber light over the decay. → “Feast in the Ruins” In front of a weathered red shack, two white rats explore the ground amid heaps of garbage, as gulls wheel overhead in a smoky dusk sky. → “White Shadows”

"The cat at the end of the world" --MJ 7 and GPT-5 #midjourney #AiArt
Image 2 – Tall, mushroom-like forms rise beside a cracked highway; dark plumes of smoke rise into a heavy sky. The same cat watches from the roadside. Mood: bleak, surreal, end-of-world quiet. Towering fungi-like pillars stand clustered by a cracked road, belching smoke into a dim, cloudy sky. The cat looks away in stillness, surrounded by ash and mist. Mood: haunting, atmospheric, contemplative. A grouping of burning, metallic mushrooms stands on a fractured asphalt plain, smoke billowing upward as the cat watches. Mood: catastrophic, mesmerizing, lonely. A cracked, barren road lined with eerie, spherical structures that emit thick black smoke. A lone black cat sits observing the desolate scene. Mood: apocalyptic, industrial decay.

GPT named this series "Dreams of the Emerald Age" but the lead prompt was actually a Pynchon reference "We await silent Tristero's empire"
A crowded steampunk-like metropolis under a vivid green sky. People in dark coats and top hats fill the cobblestone streets as towering spires loom ahead. 🟢 “The Emerald Convergence.” A misty harbor lined with ruins and overgrown stonework. Figures work among the boats as eerie green light reflects on the water. 🟢 “Harbor of Forgotten Voices.” An ancient riverside city framed by arched bridges and decaying towers, bathed in green haze beneath swirling clouds and circling birds. 🟢 “Echoes Along the Emerald River.” A sprawling, fantastical city built along a green-lit river beneath a stormy sky. Towers, domes, and ships fill the landscape, glowing faintly with emerald light. 🟢 “The Luminous City of Depths.”

'Echoes of the Synthetic Pantheon' #Midjourney 7 and gpt5
A towering biomechanical being with molten gold and brass components stands in a stormy wasteland. Its eyes and skull radiate violet energy, while smaller skeletal figures kneel nearby in awe. Mood: Majestic, ancient, and powerful. Theme: The awakening of an ancient mechanical titan. Three figures stand before glowing geometric sigils suspended in the air — two sleek, humanoid machines flanking a hooded central figure. The air glows with orange energy as if charged by ritual. Mood: Mystical and ceremonial. Theme: The union of technology and sacred geometry. A trio of intricate androids advances through a foggy industrial ruin, their frames detailed with cables and glowing brass joints. The leader’s eyes shine purple, suggesting higher consciousness...yet strangely all are oddly bestial somehow. Mood: Determined and unified. Theme: A march of sentient creation. Two tall, regal machines with radiant, flame-like light pouring from their heads stand in the midst of lightning and storm. Their designs resemble both cathedral architecture and circuitry...but skeletal. Mood: Reverent and cosmic. Theme: The guardians of digital divinity.
