This is a heartwarming, full-shot photograph capturing a joyful moment between a woman and her dog on a beach at sunset.
\n\n- **Subjects and Interaction**: The central focus is a woman and a light-colored Labrador Retriever sitting on the sand.
 The woman, with long dark hair, is smiling warmly as she looks at her dog. The dog, wearing a blue harness with a colorful pattern,
 is sitting upright and has its right paw raised to meet the woman's hand in a \"high-five\" gesture. The woman is holding a small treat in her other hand,
 suggesting a moment of training or play.\n- **Setting and Atmosphere**: The scene is set on a wide, sandy beach with the ocean in the background.
 A gentle wave is breaking on the shore. The lighting is characteristic of a golden hour, with the sun low on the horizon,
 casting a warm, soft glow across the scene and creating a lens flare on the right side of the image. The sky is bright and hazy,
 indicating the time is either sunrise or sunset.\n- **Composition and Mood**: The woman and dog are positioned in the center of the frame,
 creating a balanced and intimate composition. The overall mood is one of happiness, companionship, and peaceful connection with nature.

Generate the model

Please make sure you are using auto_round version ≥ 0.9.5

auto_round \
--model=Qwen/Qwen3-VL-30B-A3B-Instruct \
--fp_layers=mlp.gate \
--format=auto_round \
--output_dir=./tmp_autoround

Ethical Considerations and Limitations

The model can produce factually incorrect output, and should not be relied on to produce factually accurate information. Because of the limitations of the pretrained model and the finetuning datasets, it is possible that this model could generate lewd, biased or otherwise offensive outputs.

Therefore, before deploying any applications of the model, developers should perform safety testing.

Caveats and Recommendations

Users (both direct and downstream) should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the model.
