This is an example of where I combined AI with photography. The original background was black, and I replaced it with a foggy shot of trees taken in the Pantanal region of Brazil. My prompts for this image were: "beautiful young princess, long blonde flowing hair, porcelain skin, delicate features, wearing a purple robe, with a beautiful white horse, cinematic lighting, photo realistic, hyper detail, super sharp, f/32, complete depth of field --ar 3:2". AI is not yet as fine and detailed as photographic images at this time, and even though I always add 'photo realistic', most of the images fall short of this. This young girl's eyes, for example, aren't quite real. Almost, but not quite. I predict within a year it may be difficult to tell the difference between a photograph and an AI image. A lot of people find this to be very disturbing. I don't. I've been a passionate photographer for 54 years, and I will be taking photographs until I'm no longer mentally or physically able to do so. But I've embraced AI because it's such an amazing way to make images far and beyond what the camera can do. And I, and we, are image makers.
