About Nano Banana 2.1
Nano Banana 2.1 brings image creation and reference-guided editing into one workflow. Develop a cinematic scene, explore a product campaign, or build a poster around a clear visual brief. Describe the composition, materials, lighting and any words that should appear in the image.
For edits, give each reference a purpose and separate the changes you want from the details you want to preserve. A face reference, a product reference and a style reference can each guide a different part of the result.
Arcloop supports text-to-image and reference-based editing with up to 14 images. Choose 1K, 2K or 4K and one of 14 aspect ratios in Canvas, including very tall and wide formats. Each generation produces one image; review the credit estimate before submitting.
Nano Banana 2.1 Image Prompt Examples
Five original 2K images generated with Nano Banana 2.1, with the exact prompts used for each image.
A cinematic editorial photograph inside a vintage alpine train dining car at sunrise. A young adult woman with a dark bob and an ivory wool sweater sits beside a large window, quietly looking at the snow-covered mountains outside. A porcelain cup of steaming coffee rests on the polished walnut table. Warm sunlight touches her face and the brass fittings; cold blue mountains and snow fill the window, with a subtle reflection of her face in the glass. Intimate, unposed composition, waist-up three-quarter view, believable hands and facial features, tactile wood and fabric, natural skin texture, delicate film grain, restrained warm and cool color contrast. One coherent still photograph, square composition, no text or watermark.
A sophisticated flat graphic poster for a Tokyo jazz festival. Deep midnight navy background, a striking vermilion saxophone silhouette interwoven with a few bold geometric shapes and subtle cream accents. Swiss-inspired typographic hierarchy with expressive Japanese jazz-poster energy, generous negative space, crisp edges and a very light screen-print paper texture. Exact readable text only: large headline "MIDNIGHT JAZZ"; smaller subtitle "TOKYO JAZZ FESTIVAL"; event details "NOV 21–22, 2026" and "SHIBUYA · TOKYO" aligned neatly near the bottom. Carefully balanced composition, excellent letter spacing and clean professional layout. Full-bleed artwork, straight-on, no frame, no wall or mockup, no watermark.
A cinematic science-fiction film still, viewed from inside the torn-open cargo bay of an enormous crashed spacecraft. A lone astronaut in a weathered off-white suit stands at the edge of the dark ramp, small against an ancient alien city overtaken by dense tropical jungle. Colossal elegant towers rise through low clouds beyond the treetops; roots and vines weave through broken architecture, and a broad waterfall spills from a ruined elevated structure into the mist below. The ship’s damaged ribs frame the foreground asymmetrically. Soft overcast daylight and a distant break in the clouds illuminate the city, while a faint amber emergency light catches the astronaut’s silhouette. Strong depth, an unexpected but coherent architectural design, believable materials, quiet discovery, tactile live-action production design, subtle film grain, restrained colors. Square composition, no text or watermark.
A premium editorial product photograph of a forest-green glass perfume bottle standing on a wet black volcanic rock, surrounded by fresh moss and a few clear water droplets. The bottle has thick translucent glass, a simple dark cap, a little pale amber liquid, and one crisp minimal cream label with the exact word "MOSS" in elegant uppercase letters. Three-quarter front view, the entire bottle visible with generous breathing room. Soft directional light from the upper left traces the glass edges and reveals the liquid; subtle reflections sit on the wet stone. A deep, softly blurred woodland background, restrained green and charcoal palette, tactile moss, believable glass refraction, precise commercial still-life lighting. Quiet, refined luxury campaign, square composition, no extra text or watermark.
A lifelike macro wildlife photograph of a small emerald-green praying mantis perched on a moss-covered fern in an ancient forest at dawn. Side profile at insect eye level, with the triangular head, compound eye and folded forelegs sharply resolved. Tiny dew droplets cling to its legs and the fern; delicate wing veins catch the light. A narrow shaft of warm sunlight cuts through the cool green woodland, with softly blurred tree trunks, ferns and a few luminous droplets behind it. Anatomically believable insect, translucent natural textures, restrained colors, shallow depth of field with enough focus for the head and upper body. Quiet, intimate documentary photography, square composition, no text or watermark.
