    Kousa Dogwood: Stunning Ornamental Tree from East Asia — FOTD Jul 19

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

    This Cornus Dogwood is also known as the Chinese dogwood, Korean dogwood & Japanese dogwood. As you can tell from the name, it is native to East Asia & is generally cultivated for ornamental use. This particular one can be found in the grounds of Rabbie Burns’ Cottage

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

    I did a series of AI edits for this beautiful ornamental tree, gradually adding more to the transformation… enjoy

    For today, I’ve done a fantasy-style transformation for these vibrant flowers. This is a great effect & is similar to fantasy settings I’ve designed myself

    Hi All 👋 My latest post for Susan’s Digital Art Challenge: A Dangerous Liaison in a Warzone.

    I had a clear direction for this challenge: a kiss in a wartorn city. I used a baseline picture of a street in Glasgow for this.

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

    Bellis perennis is more commonly know as the daisy.

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

    This blossom is edited in the more simplistic Line-Art style. For the second, I added an ornate border & also prompted the AI to have the petals graduate from white in the centre towards red at the outside, as in the original shot.

    As with my latest Fan Of… post (see link), I’m exploring some DALL-E AI preset styles for my edits. This blossom is edited in the pastel style. In the second, I added a wee bit of magical sparkle & for the third, did a blend of fantasy/pastel.

    I really like the light feel of the pastel effect & the way the pink tips of the petals were picked out in the re-imagining.
