# Nano Banana

Nano Banana is the original model of Google’s family, running Gemini 2.5 Flash Image. It generates images and edits photos from plain-language instructions at a flat per-image price and a single, roughly 1-megapixel output size.

```
// Node.js. Running this creates one paid generation.

  "model": "nano_banana",
  "prompt": "Couple riding bicycles along a canal lined with trees in early evening. 35mm film still, soft natural light, muted earth tones with one yellow accent, shallow depth of field, subtle film grain, candid and unposed, no text, logos, or watermark.",
  "aspect_ratio": "1:1"
};
