A few samples generated by text prompts with Adobe Firefly Generative AI.

Quite impressive software, the limits of real vs. Generative photography are quickly fading away...

From a lockdown idea to a new hobby, which is proving as adictive as photography.

Fake warning:

Real image of a trail used as base for Adobe's AI based generative fill that replaces the path with a creek and the sky was also replaced.

Not great, but pretty impressive considering the level of effort on my part. I'm impressed by the program's ability to match the mood, color, and overall composition vibe of the image.

In reality there is no cave and also no river

An early morning photograph of the Arapuni power station. It was a very fogy morning which added to the image nicely!

The hydro-power station was completed in 1929 and was the first hydro station built on the Waikato river. But in the end became one of many hydro dams along the length of the river.

Because the original photo was framed quite tight on the left hand edge, I used the new Photoshop Beta generative fill to add extra 'territory' to the left hand edge and was impressed with the results.

I used Photoshop's generative fill feature on this photo in which several inches were ciipped from one of its wings. Can you detect which wing?

I'm glad I didn't delete the image, as I had many others with the same flaw.

I used Photoshop's generative fill tool to remove branches at the bottom & to replace the sky.

Study for an installation by the Barbarian Group going up at the McLeod Residence in July. I am going to be vague on the details of the installation itself, but it involves Processing, Arudino boards, laser cutting, prints, and lots and lots of magnets. Pictures from the installation and opening will be forthcoming.

Regarding this image, it is more of a process study than a final piece. Learning to control the Voronoi has been quite the brain teaser and much of its nuance still remains a mystery to me. But I figured out how to constrain the Voronoi to a predefined shape in a really round about way involving vector cross products and magnetic repulsion. Fun!
