It is a real problem, is it not? How can we come to an understanding of this utterly diverse and complicated world whilst sitting in the particularity of our home? It is true that the media, from newspapers to TV and social media, offer us a daily digest of selected information. We would, I sincerely hope, critically examine these news and think for ourselves. However, even so, we would have to deal with the selective nature of the information. We never see "the whole picture". Our knowledge, even at the best of times, is necessarily fragmentary. It is absolutely important to be aware of this limitation - it is one of the virtues that make us human.
I am saying this because AI is on the march. AI has never ever left its ivory tower, it never "left home". It never made any experiences. AI has not seen anything. It does not know how to suffer. What it does is to harvest and (often illegally) exploit printed or published materials, information it has neither created nor even collected. It does not know what it does not know. And yet AI will come up with explanations and scenarios that are untroubled by any kind of self-doubt. AI does not know when it is peddling false information. AI will interpret the world whilst staying at its "home" and will not even be aware of it. Leica M8 plus Voigtlaender 35/1.4 at approx. F8.

Swamp rocket ready to go as soon as it is jump started.
Combo of 3 Wombo images, layered and blended in Pixelmator Pro, enhanced with PicLight and my texture.
Using the prompt word, Steampunk, leads to some fun Wombo creations. HDR and VFX styles used here.
Time to take off! Thanks for the visit and your comments!
There are not many groups that I have found to display Wombo works, so I have created one. Please be patient with me, as I have never done this before. Please check it out!

As with all tigers, the white Bengal tiger's stripes are like fingerprints, with no two tigers having the same pattern. The stripes of the tiger are a pigmentation of the skin; if an individual were to be shaved, its distinctive coat pattern would still be visible.

Da noi si dice che potrebbe essere un business .... .
L'"esportazione della nebbia" è un modo di dire ironico e un'espressione goliardica nata per descrivere l'abbondanza di questo fenomeno atmosferico nella bassa pianura padanoveneta.
La frase viene talvolta usata per prendere in giro o sottolineare, con autoironia, la peculiarità del clima locale che spesso avvolge la regione in "un vero muro di nebbia"
Per me, la nebbia è un elemento che caratterizza il paesaggio, le leggende e l'immaginario collettivo della zona, spesso associata a storie misteriose o d'atmosfera.

Here, people say it could be a business.
"Fog export" is an ironic expression and a lighthearted phrase created to describe the abundance of this atmospheric phenomenon in the lower Po Valley.
The phrase is sometimes used to mock or self-deprecatingly emphasize the peculiarity of the local climate, which often envelops the region in "a veritable wall of fog."
For me, fog is an element that characterizes the landscape, legends, and collective imagination of the area, often associated with mysterious or atmospheric stories.

Al oest del poble de Donnas, a la Vall d'Aosta, hi ha un dels trams més impressionants de la enginyeria viaria romana, En aquest punt, el riu Dora Riparia anava mot arrant d'un cincle de pedra, no deixant espai fisic per ni tansols una via romana. Doncs aquests excavaren un tram sencer en roca viva per tal de fer passar el trafic a una distancia segura del riu, famós per les seves crescudes salvatges.
Els enginyers romans varen excavar a la roca vlva un tall de 221 metres de llargada, buidant en ocasions fins a 12 metres de profunditat desde el relleu natural. Aquest arc de pedra natural fou deixat com a testimoni del nivell d'esforç necessari per a aital obra d'enginyeria. A uns vint metres d'aquest, i formant part de la mateixa roca natural, hi ha un mil·liari de pedra natural amb la única inscripció XXXVI, és a dir trenta-sis milles des de la Colonia Augusta Praetoria Salassorum, l'actual Aosta.
Tot plegat fou excavat cap als anys 31 i 25 a.C., en el periode inicial del Imperi Romà sota August.

=================================================
To the west of the village of Donnas, in the Aosta Valley, there is one of the most impressive stretches of Roman road engineering in the World. At this point, the river Dora Riparia ran straight by a stone cliff, leaving no physical space for not even a Roman road. Well, they excavated an entire section in live rock in order to allow traffic to pass at a safe distance from the river, famous for its wild floods.
The Roman engineers excavated a 221 meters long cut through hard rock, digging on occasions up to 12 meters deep from the natural relief. This native stone arch was left as a testament to the level of effort required for such a work of engineering. About twenty meters away, and forming part of the same natural rock, there is a milestone (miliarium) with the inscription "XXXVI", that is to say thirty-six Roman miles from the Colonia Augusta Praetoria Salassorum, today's Aosta.
Everything was excavated around the years 31 and 25 BC, in the initial period of the Roman Empire under Augustus.
