Oh, wie schön ist Quedlinburg !

Zu DDR-Zeit gab es Pläne die sich im Verfall befindliche Stadt und ihre Fachwerkhäuser abzureißen. Zu groß erschien der Aufwand einer Sanierung all der hübschen Häuser und Gassen. Die Zeit dieser Planungen hat Quedlinburg überdauert, ab den 90er-Jahren begann dann die umfassende Sanierung der weitläufigen, vielfach noch aus dem Mittelalter stammenden Bausubstanz. Heute steht Quedlinburg auf der Liste der UNESCO-Liste des Weltkulturerbes. Sie trägt daher auch den Beinamen "Welterbestadt".

.

Oh, how beautiful Quedlinburg is!

During the GDR era there were plans to demolish the decaying city and its half-timbered houses. The effort required to renovate all the pretty houses and alleys seemed too great. Quedlinburg survived the time of these plans, and in the 1990s the extensive renovation of the buildings, many of which still date back to the Middle Ages, began. Today Quedlinburg is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. It is therefore also nicknamed “World Heritage City”.

Wie würde das Casino Baden aussehen, wenn man den Kaiser-Franz Ring zum Kanal ausheben würde?

Statt mit dem Auto fährt man mit dem Boot oder der Gondel vor.

Kanal ist natürlich KI generiert.

How would the Casino Baden look like if the roaad in front of it was replaced by a channel?

The water part was kreated by AI.

Starter image taken by my sister, Susan on 14 April 2004

She was three years old in April 2010 and I found several pictures of her playing with her drum. I composited them into one collage, adding a stage background via AI, and a lens flare filter.

Of the three images, I like this one the best. The logs were removed and the plunge pool water smoothed out.

This was a very plain photo so I delved into AI and asked it to fill the background with leaves, after many rejected ideas, I quite liked this one.

I pushed the processing to accentuate the textures. Then I added the crow via generative fill (AI).

My portie and burmese cat sitting side by side starting at me as I sit at the edge of the bed eating a bowl of cereal with milk. They are trying to look cute and hungry to persuade me into sharing the milk at the bottom of the bowl. I grabbed a quick shot with an iPhone 15 and they didn't move a muscle (the BG was replaced in generative fill). And yes they did each get a little milk and shared nicely. The dog knows that the cat goes first and then he gets to finish up.

This WW II era ambulance is housed in the Tillamook Air Museaum south of Tillamook, Oregon. The Tillamook Air Museum is an aviation museum located at a former U.S. Navy Air Station and housed in a former blimp hangar, known as "Hangar B", which is the largest clear-span wooden structure in the world. Part of the enormous hanger had a white plastic roof hanging above some of the exhibits. There were also considerable distracting items in the vicinity of this truck. So, I experimented with Generative AI in Photoshop to give the vehicle a more interesting back drop.

Happy Truck Thursday!

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 thought these dinosaur metal statues in Borrego Springs, California would be happier if they could see their reflections in water. Generative Fill in Photoshop provided some water and reflections. It did not seem to improve their attitude!

A long, deep, smooth-walled canyon cuts through the sandstone near Devil's Garden south of Escalante, Utah. I wouldn't want to be caught in it during a flash flood. This truck looks like it took a wrong turn and got stuck in the canyon. However, it was generated by Generative Fill in Photoshop. It is a rather unconvincing version of a truck if you look closely.

Happy Truck Thursday!

Protzige Regierungspaläste, barocke Kirchen, ein paar Relikte aus der Römerzeit, das eine oder andere hippe Stadtviertel. Das haben doch alle mediterranen Städte. Man kann sie kaum voneinander unterscheiden. Wirklich einzigartig aber und es gibt sie so nur in Lissabon, das sind diese putzigen kleinen Schmalspur-Straßenbahnen. Alle Strecken (bis auf 1) werden bis heute ausschließlich von diesen hübschen, vielfach noch aus den 1930er Jahren stammenden Bahnen befahren. Die Steigungen sind immens, die Kurven eng, eine andere Bahn hätte hier ohnehin keine Chance. Besonders beliebt bei Touristen ist die Linie 28, deren Verlauf fast wie bei einer Stadtrundfahrt durch die schönsten Viertel der Stadt führt. Einen Sitzplatz zu bekommen ist fast unmöglich. Mir egal, von außen sind die Bahnen viel hübscher anzusehen, als von innen 😉.

I don’t know how you all process your images but I always keep the master raw in an image library and duplicate individual images and work on them in a WIP folder (belt and braces approach). I seem to have an eclectic selective of unfinished images languishing in said folder so have gone back to them to complete the processing.

I’ve only uploaded this particularly one because I spent a lot of time removing objects from it. In the old days you would have to clone things out, cut and paste over from other areas and a whole lot of clever manipulation to clean up the image (which I’m not particularly good at).

I now use the AI generative fill function all the time, but still have no idea how it does it or how it knows what lies behind the obstruction. In the original raw image, I have removed 3 cars parked kerbside, 2 men walking into the frame on the left, a man operating a mini road sweeper on the right, a woman pushing a pram just behind him. And just before I converted it to a jpeg, I spotted a woman hiding around the alleyway but clearly visible. The generative fill option also assumed there was some sort of a square stone block behind one of the cars, which I have also removed.

Would you have known unless I told you or can you spot a glitch in the matrix?

Created with Adobe firefly and Generative fill.
