Rocky Mountain National Park was doing a controlled burn near the park visitor’s center in November of 2024
Remote controlled pinhole camera Mark 2.
The shutter is a thin blade made from 4x5 film covered with 2 layers of wide insulating tape and driven by a cheap motor. It only moves about 45degrees and is held in place by friction when the motor is off. The motor is only on for a short time to move to open and to closed.
Present format is 6x12x30mm
The remote cable is 5m long 0.7square mm flex because the motor takes a lot of current from the 4.5v battery.
It can also be operated manually.
The control tower at Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam, The Netherlands, shot during a cloudy, wet and windy day.
The photo was shot from Schiphol's "Panorama Terrace". I used an M.Zuiko 40-150mm lens @132mm and E-PL1 camera.

I am dipping my toes into the world of the surreal. This is my first attempt.
The cab controls for a new AutoCat semi-automated side loader refuse truck made by Wayne Engineering. The AutoCat is great for small urban routes, picking up missed stops, and spread out rural routes.
Crossing over Wyman creek and under the county road CN 2032 heads to Minntac to get loaded with fresh taconite.

4. Conveyor belt to track, Attach droid to track, Track up to second level, Testing/finishing stations
Motion control head I designed around a pair of surplus precision worm gearboxes. The vacuum infused carbon fibre covers are largely superficial/protective, they were my first experiment in directly CNC machining a mould. I machined the aluminium parts on my CNC router and anodized them at home.
Because the head was constructed around existing gearboxes its a little larger and heavier than I would like, weighing around 5KG but supporting loads upwards of 10kg.
This is meant to be a Garden of Eden scene. 'garden of eden' was not part of the text prompt though.

Made with the Bing Image Creator, powered by DALL-E 3.
I think that AI image generation is similar in many ways to photography. The camera itself handles all the fine details, but the photographer is in charge of curating the types of images that will be created.
Ultimately, it is all about maximizing the probability that something good will be created.
This is very similar to AI image generation, in terms of the skills involved and what the human does vs. what the machine does.
You can't compare AI image generation to the process of actually making these images from scratch with 3D software or paint/pencils, where the human controls every detail.
However, I think the process really is very similar to that of photography, as I made the case for above.
