*************************************

 

Comparing AI-generated images with real photographs can be quite fascinating. Here are a few aspects to consider:

 

Realism

Photographs: Real photos capture the world as it is, with all its imperfections, nuances, and natural lighting.

 

AI Images: These can be incredibly realistic, but they may sometimes lack the subtle imperfections and natural lighting that real photos have.

 

Creativity

AI Images: AI can generate highly creative and imaginative visuals that don't exist in reality, which is great for artistic and conceptual purposes.

 

Photographs: Limited to what can be physically captured by the camera in the real world.

 

Detail

Photographs: Offer natural and intricate details that are true to life.

 

AI Images: Can be detailed as well, but sometimes the details may look artificial or too perfect.

 

Use Cases

Photographs: Best for documentation, realism, and capturing specific moments.

 

AI Images: Ideal for creative projects, concepts, and situations where real photos may not be possible or practical.

 

While AI-generated images can be impressive and useful in many contexts, they still can’t fully replicate the authenticity and natural beauty of real photographs. Have you tried using AI to create images before, or are you considering it? I know where my allegiances lie... its real photography and Flickr has a huge example of each

The village was once only accessible by sea and today there no road that links five self-contained villages (Cinque Terre).

As the Sun set and the Moon rose in a clear blue sky, Patty said "Oh look, a pink moon!" and so it was. I switched the film simulation to Provia, and fired off several bursts of handheld shots with my new favorite lens. Spent way too much time Saturday aligning, cropping, upsampling, re-aligning, and stacking the 47 snaps before sliding many sliders to get this surrealist image. The White Balance hasn't changed, but exposure, curves, contrast, resolution, sharpness, and definition have been cranked or at least tweaked. All of which is to say, "Happy Sliders Sunday!" I needed some #Circles for #FlickrFriday, anyway. Maybe photorealism, next time.

Can a hyper-real painting movement born from photography make a U turn?

The debate being, can photorealism be turned back upon itself?

 

A friend of mine who scores for motion pictures informed me such is quite often the case in producing music for movies.

Inspiration is found in a piece of modern pop music which in turn was written with the help of classical music. Thus a root hundreds of years old loops around to present it's leaves on the big screen today.

 

Plus, Though having a camera with me I purposefully took this picture using my iPhone to extend the line of iPhones within the image outward. And if you are looking at this photo on your iPhone you further extend that line...........

 

And if someone takes a picture of you looking at this photo on your iPhone with their iPhone -on and on and on...

 

The success of this shot lies in that couch at the very edge of the foreground. It begins the cascade of layering .
