Add Negative Space editing instruction

Composition & Framing

Extend the uploaded image to add clean negative space on [describe the side, e.g. "the right side"], generatively continuing the background so it looks natural and uncluttered. Preserve the subject and existing scene exactly. Produce a result suitable for adding text or design overlays in the new empty area. Do not alter the subject and avoid busy detail in the new space.

Replace the text in [brackets] with your own details before running the edit.
