What is Somber Depth SREF style

This style captures a profound sense of atmosphere, often utilizing low-key illumination, deep shadows, and desaturated, earthy color palettes, reminiscent of classic portraiture and melancholic, overgrown landscapes. In Midjourney, incorporating the 'moody' tag into your prompt yields images with high emotional weight, deep contrast, and rich, almost tangible textures. This aesthetic is ideal for generating scenes evoking mystery, quiet introspection, or dark romanticism, where the lighting itself becomes a central narrative element.

Somber Depth Prompt Ideas

  • An overgrown path leading into a misty forest at twilight, dense foliage, purple and pale yellow wildflowers, highly atmospheric, moody
  • Close-up cinematic portrait of a thoughtful young man, soft natural light illuminating one side of the face, detailed skin texture, dark background, moody
  • Interior scene of a dimly lit room, candlelight illuminating antique glass bottles and ripe lemons, vanitas painting style, moody, extremely detailed

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Midjourney Style Reference (--sref)?

A Style Reference, or SREF, is a powerful feature that lets you use the aesthetic of a reference image to influence the style of your generations. Our library provides the direct SREF code for thousands of styles.

How do I understand and use the Aspect Ratio (--ar) parameter?

The --ar parameter controls the aspect ratio of your image. For example, --ar 16:9 creates a widescreen image. Our guide provides a full list of supported ratios.

Why is my SREF code not working?

Ensure you are using a compatible Midjourney version (v6 or newer) and check for typos. Sometimes, strong keywords in your prompt can override the style; try reducing the style weight (e.g., --sw 250).

Can I use this SREF code with a Character Reference (--cref)?

Yes, --sref and --cref can be used together. This is a powerful combination to maintain a consistent character while applying a consistent style.

Which versions support style reference?

Style Reference is compatible with Midjourney versions 6, 7, and Niji 6.

What is the default image size for Midjourney V7?

Midjourney V7 creates upscaled images at 2048 x 2048 pixels for the default 1:1 aspect ratio.

What is the default style weight and what range can I use?

The default style weight is --sw 100. You can set it between 0 and 1000.
