Documentary Styled Images in Midjourney

I illustrated a dream that I documented, and here's how I created the imagery

I have a personal channel where I share more reflective writing. This morning I shared a dream I had - 4 years ago - that I created images in Midjourney V6 in - to accompany the story. If you would like to read my ‘writing’ style that is not focused on teaching - go view that story here:

I Woke from a Dream...

What follows, are select images and the prompts used to create them.

Documentary photograph of a little, nondescript town full of old run-down factory buildings. Some were half-converted to little shops selling knick-knacks on a community level. Impoverished southern town on its way out. --ar 16:9 --style raw

While I liked this first set, it was a little too abandoned and overgrown. I want there to be evidence of life ‘still there’ - but impoverished and rundown… so I modified my prompt a bit (but included a referenced image from this first collection, to influence the look/feel of the output.)
