how it came out

One of the strongest in the second round. The gym still shows a boxing ring, which was dropped after the render.

prompt

Turn the attached 3D model image into a photorealistic architectural photograph. Keep the exact layout, camera angle and the position of every building, shopfront, sign, lamp post, bench and tree from the attached image. Only change the materials, lighting, weather and surroundings as described below.

Setting: a clear autumn afternoon. This side faces north, so the fronts sit in soft, even shade under a bright blue sky while the roof plates catch the sun; the shop signs and window displays glow warmly. Camera high on the north side of the street looking south, 35mm lens.

The view: the whole south side of Market Row, the private courtyard street of the house, seen from slightly above, as if from the roofline of the opposite side. Show every shop listed below clearly, with its sign readable.

Every shopfront sits in its own bay between honed pale limestone pilasters, uplit at their feet, under a deep carved pale stone cornice; a slim bronze and glass canopy with a fine warm LED line runs along the fronts (not over the cinema or the garage). Above, the upper floor is a crisp grid of pale Portland limestone fins and slabs with tall bronze windows set deep, a band of clerestory glass on top, and a thin pale floating roof plate overhanging the street by nearly two metres with a fine LED line on its edge; the plates step up and down with the house sections and dark slate roofs rise behind them. All the stone is calm, even and pale with no marble veining. The street: pale granite pavements, grey granite setts laid in sweeping fan arcs, slim black modern lamp posts.

The shopfronts, left to right, exactly in this order and no others:
- Texas Homecare (L-shaped corner shop, 7 m front, an era hero front): a 1990s DIY store front, light grey frame, a long red lit fascia reading TEXAS HOMECARE in plain bold white capitals (no logo), a grey roller shutter half raised over one window, a yellow and black hazard strip along the base, pallets of timber and paint tins outside and a small sign reading DIY TRADE GARDEN
- Ironside Boxing Club (6 m front): slim dark bronze frame and tall plate glass, the name in cut bronze serif letters on a dark bronze fascia, softly backlit; through the glass, a boxing ring with red ropes, heavy punchbags and steel lockers
- Fletcher's Range (narrow 3 m front): slim dark bronze frame and tall plate glass, the name in cut bronze serif letters on a dark bronze fascia, softly backlit, a single door and a slim window showing a lit pale stone stair going down and a longbow mounted on the wall
- Midland Bank (narrow 3 m front, an era hero front): a 1980s high street bank front, deep navy fascia with MIDLAND BANK in plain gold serif capitals (no logo), navy frame, pale stone plinth, brass handrails and night safe plate, and a round white bracket clock with a brass rim projecting above the door
- Blockbuster (7 m front, an era hero front): a 1990s video rental shop, a deep lit royal blue box sign reading BLOCKBUSTER in bold yellow capitals with a thin yellow strip underneath (no other logo), white aluminium frame, windows packed with colourful generic film posters with no readable titles, a small red OPEN sign and a blue returns box with a yellow slot
- The Regal (L-shaped corner shop, 8 m front, an era hero front): a 1930s Art Deco picture house in glazed cream faience with slim vertical fins, a tall burgundy vertical REGAL blade sign outlined in light, a deep marquee reading NOW SHOWING with chaser bulbs, a chrome and glass ticket booth, lit poster cases with plain coloured posters, and a black vitrolite plinth.

A red cast-iron telephone box stands at the kerb in front of Blockbuster, near The Regal. Foreground: the granite square with the stone water bowl, birches in autumn colour and benches. At the far right, the corner where The Regal turns to meet the Our Price record shop on the west side.

Style: high-end architectural photography, natural colours, crisp detail, real weathering and texture.

Avoid: changing the layout, theme park or film set look, twee chocolate-box cottages, plastic signs, modern glass boxes, real film titles or logos other than the shop names given, people, extra text.
