Dark academia – a new passion?

I started working with Midjourney lately and I'm amazed by the outcome. My learning curve in the last 4 days was high. F.e. I quickly learned to change image sizes. Also thanks to https://replicate.com/nightmareai/real-esrgan I now know how to get a real high resolution (I think even > 10.000 px).

I started with landscape imagery in the style of impressionists but quickly turned to the dark academia style. I think it's not that new anymore, but I like the atmosphere (mystic, spiritual and occult) one may create with rather simple prompts.

Here are my first results:
