Prompt snippets
Perched on the edge of a rugged cliff, a small blue plastic outhouse stands against the vast expanse of the ocean. Its weathered paint glows under the sunlight, contrasting sharply with the deep blues of the sea and sky. Waves crash far below, and the wind whips around it, giving the lonely structure an oddly heroic, almost whimsical presence on the precipice.
