Night Vision Filter
Use the Night Vision Filter to give a photo a green monochrome camera look with grain, highlight glow and darkened corners. Upload a clear image or describe a scene to create a simulated night-vision effect.

How it works
Choose a photo with readable details and clear shapes. Very dark or blurred areas provide little information. A street, forest path, room or pet portrait can all show the green monochrome treatment. You can also describe a new image without uploading a photo.
Add optional direction for the look you want. With a photo and no words, the starting treatment is applied automatically. Review the displayed credit cost, sign in when prompted, and generate one square image.
Compare the result with your source and inspect small details at full size. Download the image you want. A changed prompt and another generation start a separate run.
What shapes the result
The effect replaces natural colors with shades of green, pale highlights and deep shadows. This makes it visually different from ordinary dark color grading or a thermal image with red and yellow heat colors.
Electronic grain and restrained highlight bloom give the scene a camera-recording feel. Ask for lighter grain when fine details matter. The result is a generated still image, so texture is not a technical measurement of sensor noise.
Architecture, faces and foreground objects should remain recognizable. Start from an image that already contains the details you want to see. The filter cannot recover information that was never captured or reliably reveal objects hidden in darkness.
Prompt ideas
Name one subject or setting, then the visual treatment and light. With a photo, describe only the changes you want; the uploaded image supplies the reference.
A quiet empty forest footpath and tall tree trunks rendered as simulated green-phosphor night vision, luminous pale green leaves, deep black shadows, restrained electronic grain and darkened corners, coherent 35mm eye-level photograph.
An empty residential city street with stone buildings and a parked bicycle rendered in green monochrome night-vision style, pale green highlights on windows, restrained grain and soft vignette, no signs or lettering.
A seated grey tabby cat on a garden wall rendered in simulated green night vision, clear cat face and ears, green-white eyeshine kept subtle, monochrome fur detail, restrained grain and dark corners.
Ways to use it
Explore the mood of a nighttime scene for a story or concept board. Treat the result as an illustration of a visual style.
Compare how a forest, street or room reads with green highlights and heavy shadows. Use the image to communicate a look, not camera specifications.
Give a familiar location or pet photo a different atmosphere. Check important edges and features before sharing the result.
Prepare a square still image for a themed post. Add any captions separately so the image remains free of invented camera labels or timestamps.
