    Primroses & Raindrops: FOTD Apr 26

    Hi All 👋 My latest post for Cee’s FOTD.

    As with my latest Fan Of… post (see link), I’m exploring some DALL-E AI preset styles for my edits.

    This was a very quick transformation in the Fish-Eye Lens style. Both have captured the raindrops really well, but I prefer the second picture as you can see the flowers in the background

    Hidden in the Woods — Spies, Lies & Digital Skies

    Hi All 👋 My latest post for Susan’s Digital Art Challenge: Hidden Safe House.

    Okay, so this one became a bit of an epic as one idea led to another. I ended up with three different scenarios, & thus, three different baseline images.

    I’m starting out with the safe house in a wood scenario. The following is a photo from an old WWII military site at Elie, Fife.

    As with my latest Fan Of… post (see link), I’m exploring some DALL-E AI preset styles for my edits.

    This was a very quick transformation in the Futurism style. For the third & fourth images, I went for a Futurism/Cyberpunk fusion.

    As with my latest Fan Of… post (see link), I’m exploring some DALL-E AI preset styles for my edits.

    This was a very quick transformation in the Concept Art style. For the third & fourth images, I prompted the AI to add a touch of mystery.

  • Abstracts — Lens-Artists Challenge #296

    Abstracts — Lens-Artists Challenge #296

    Hi All 👋 My entry for this week’s challenge, set by Ritva.

    This is an interesting challenge; I’ve never really dabbled in the world of abstract, so here we go.

    My first group could fit in a “what is it?” category of abstract.

    This first shot looks like an alien forest; it’s a macro shot of dew on moss.
