Looking for the best Midjourney prompts?

We have tried a lot of AI image generators like Stable Diffusion, Bing Image Creator, and DALL-E 3. And it’s no bummer that we also loved Midjourney too. But to make the most of it, you need the right prompts.

No worries – we’re here to help!

In this guide, we have shared the best Midjourney AI prompts to create unique AI images.

What is Midjourney?

Midjourney is an AI image generator developed by an independent research lab.

Midjourney can change simple text prompts into beautiful images. While there are many tools like this today, Midjourney has become a top name among Stable Diffusion, Eluna AI, and DALL-E when the debate is about the best AI image generators.

Midjourney

How does Midjourney work?

It’s simple. With Midjourney, anyone can make great images using only text. All you need is the Discord chat app. However, unlike other tools, Midjourney is not free. Before generating AI images, you need to pay.

Still, people who are AI image designers love it, as the images are so good they can trick you into believing they are real. It’s because Midjourney uses a diffusion model.

But why isn’t it free?

Making these images takes a lot of computer power. It uses something called GPU a lot. And these GPUs have limited memory. This memory is needed to make the images clear.

So, using this high-level AI tool has a cost. Midjourney starts at $10 per month. This gives about 200 image creations. If you want more generations, you can choose a higher plan, which costs up to $120 monthly.

So, without further ado, let’s dive into our collection of Midjourney prompts and get you started on some truly fantastic artwork.

Best Midjourney Prompts

We have compiled only the best and most loved Midjourney prompts from different sources like Discord, Reddit, Quora, and other prompt search engines.

Note

These prompts are shared here to act as a template for your imagination. Do not try to copy and generate the images; make sure you tweak them and make something of your own on Midjourney.

Also, you can try our Midjourney prompt generator to generate some awesome Midjourney prompts without typing every parameter manually.

So try these out, and let us know your favorite prompts in the comments.

Credits / Playground
Prompt #3: "/Imagine Imagine a massive Roman palace depicted as a mind map. The mind map showcases the intricate layout and architectural details of the palace, emphasizing its grandeur and magnificence. The palace stands tall, exuding an aura of power and opulence, with imposing columns and elaborate decorations adorning its facade. Within this mind map, envision 30 numbers arranged in ascending order from 1 to 30. These numbers are strategically placed throughout the image, blending seamlessly with the organized structure of the palace. For instance, number 1 could be positioned at the entrance gate, while number 2 might be placed at the central courtyard. As you explore the mind map, you'll notice that the numbers are incorporated into various elements of the palace. They are prominently displayed, ensuring their visibility and making them appear large and prominent. The numbers are integrated into the architecture itself, etched into marble walls, engraved on statues, or elegantly displayed within vibrant murals. Each number represents a significant location within the palace, acting as a marker for key areas. For example, number 10 could signify the grand ballroom, while number 20 might represent the luxurious dining hall. The numbers are strategically positioned to guide you through the different sections of the palace, facilitating easy navigation and exploration. This image of a mind map depicting a Roman palace with 30 numbers arranged in ascending order within the organized structure creates a visually striking representation of your mid-journey. It allows you to immerse yourself in the splendor of the palace, while the prominent and visible numbers aid in connecting your thoughts and ideas to specific locations within the grand structure.
