A square image has equal width and height, described as a 1:1 aspect ratio. The image could be 1000px × 1000px, or 1500px × 1500px, and the aspect ratio would still be 1:1. A computer screen might have a ratio of 16:10. The width is 1.6 times longer than the height. So the image could be 1600px × 1000px, 4000px × 2000px, 320px x 200px, etc.
The default aspect ratio is 1:1.
--aspect
must use whole numbers. Use 139:100 instead of 1.39:1.
The aspect ratio impacts the shape and composition of a generated image.
Some aspect ratios may be slightly changed when upscaling.
Different Midjourney Version Models have different maximum aspect ratios.

1:2 to 2:1

The --ar
parameter will accept any aspect ratio from 1:1 (square) up to the maximum aspect ratio for each model. However, final outputs may be slightly modified during image generation or upscaling. Example: prompts using --ar 16:9
(1.78) create images with a 7:4
(1.75) aspect ratio.
* Aspect ratios greater than 2:1 are experimental and may produce unpredicatble results.

Do you love an image you have generated but wish it taller or wider? You can use the 🔎 Zoom Out
buttons on any upscaled image to change the aspect ratio of your image. The Midjourney Bot will fill in the new space with additional content informed by your prompt and the original image.
Add --aspect <value>:<value>
, or --ar <value>:<value>
to the end of your prompt.
