Full comparisonCompare Models (select 4)
For Travel & Nature creators, image models need to do more than look “pretty.” They must render believable landscapes, accurate lighting, natural textures (water, rock, snow, foliage), and destination details that feel authentic for guides, reels, thumbnails, and itinerary posts.
Flux Ultra 1.1 and Seedream 4.5 are both premium options inside Influencer Studio at the same cost (16 credits per image). The difference comes down to what you value most: ultra-photoreal scenic generation from scratch, or flexible editing workflows to refine existing travel shots and concepts.
Travel & Nature — Side-by-Side Results
Prompt
"Travel influencer selfie-style shot of a woman in her mid-20s with sun-kissed wavy brown hair, wearing a light fleece pullover, black leggings, and trail runners, holding her phone slightly above eye level and glancing near the camera with a relaxed half-smile. She’s on a cliffside viewpoint above a turquoise alpine lake with pine forests and distant snowy peaks, wind catching a few strands of hair, golden hour light warming her face and the landscape. Candid “just hiked here” vibe with natural phone-camera look, minimal makeup, slightly messy backpack straps visible."

Flux Ultra 1.1 Strengths
- Exceptional photorealism for landscapes (natural lighting, atmospheric depth, and realistic terrain textures)
- Ultra-high detail that holds up for wide scenic shots and tight crops (mountain ridges, city skylines, coastline foam, forest canopy)
- Strong “destination hero image” output for cover visuals, blog headers, and high-impact thumbnails
- Premium look that can reduce the need for heavy post-processing when you need a finished, cinematic travel frame
Seedream 4.5 Strengths
- Image-to-image editing for travel workflows (iterate on a draft, refine composition, or adjust style without starting over)
- Versatile styles for travel storytelling (from clean editorial to vibrant adventure aesthetics)
- High-resolution output suitable for multi-format publishing (feeds, stories, banners, and print-ready concepts)
- Practical for location variations—generate multiple looks of the same destination concept and keep visual continuity
Verdict
If your priority is premium, photoreal travel imagery that looks like it came from a high-end camera setup—especially for sweeping landscapes and “wow” destination shots—Flux Ultra 1.1 is the stronger pick.
If you need a flexible creative pipeline—editing, iterating, and reworking travel concepts or existing images while keeping quality high—Seedream 4.5 is often the better day-to-day choice. With identical pricing (16 credits per image), the best option depends on whether you’re generating final scenic hero frames (Flux Ultra 1.1) or building an iterative travel content workflow (Seedream 4.5).
