Masked Lantern Alley

"Edit the provided photo of the narrow neon-lit Japanese alley. Preserve the alley's perspective, hanging lantern silhouettes and cherry blossom canopy, but transform the image into a bold, flat graphic poster suitable for printing. Flatten photographic detail into strong shapes and outlines, limit the palette to hot pink, cyan, deep indigo and warm amber, and add halftone/screenprint texture. Replace the pavement with a glowing cyan river of simplified reflections that leads to the vanishing point. Morph the paper lanterns into stylized mask-like lanterns with warm cores and subtle hollow crescent eyes (decorative, slightly eerie but non-graphic). Render cherry blossoms as geometric faceted petals that fall like confetti and form a repeating pattern overhead. Remove or reduce people to small faceless silhouettes for compositional rhythm. Remove all legible text on signs and replace with abstract symbols or texture blocks. Compose the scene vertically with a large mask-lantern and arcing blossom canopy in the foreground and smaller lantern motifs receding to the center. Make the final artwork high-contrast, simplified, and apparel-ready (flat colors, crisp outlines, halftone accents), emphasizing a surreal, slightly macabre, high-weirdness neon poster while keeping the original alley still recognizable in silhouette and composition."
