    I decided to do a few AI transformations for this tranquil scene (see the carousel). I started with a simple pastel rendering for a soft look, followed by a Baroque transformation for plenty of drama & a futuristic re-imagining for a blast of colour. What’s your favourite

    I next decided to do some fusions; I liked the colour & drama that came out of these prompts. The first two are fusions of Steampunk, baroque, & Watercolour styles. The last two are fusions of Cyberpunk & baroque. Too crazy or not crazy enough; let me know

    I’ve done a few DALL-E transformations of this scene in the carousel below.

    Starting with oil painting, steampunk, futuristic, cyberpunk & lastly, synthwave.

    Hi All 👋 My latest post for Susan’s Digital Art Challenge: Evading Surveillance In A Crowded Market.

    I only have one market shot, so used that as the baseline image. It was taken at a European Christmas Market in Glasgow, & so the images generated off it are a wee bit festive

    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.

    Solar Punk Primroses: FOTD Apr 23

    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 solar punk style. For the third & fourth images, I did a fusion of Solar Punk/Steampunk.

    If you follow my blog, you know I’m currently working on a project fusing my photography with AI creativity. For more on my journey with AI, check out my Fan Of… series, the latest of which is a reimagining of some lensball shots.

    FROM REAL PHOTOS TO COLLABORATIVE AI ARTWORK: MY EXPERIMENT WITH AI ART

    I’m using the same baseline photo as last week; a shot of Fannyside Lochs at dawn as seen through Lensy.

    Hi All 👋 My latest post for Susan’s Digital Art Challenge: Tracing a mysterious phone call.

    I thought I’d go a bit old-school with this one & had a good couple of pictures to use as a baseline.

    Read on for a wee bit of art history as well!!!

    Hi All 👋 My latest post for Susan’s Digital Art Challenge: Deciphering a Cryptic Message.

    I used two baseline images for this week’s challenge…

    …and then wrote a prompt to include the deciphering of a message. I was very happy with the first image created.

    Never one to leave well enough alone, I had to re-imagine this in a steampunk world.

    This was a cool outcome, but I wanted to go one step further. I’ve been playing around with a fusion of steampunk & futuristic settings, so that’s what I’ve gone with for this final image.

    Snowdrops: FOTD Feb 16 with AI Artistry

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

    Out on a walk yesterday, I spotted this wee patch of snowdrops just coming to bloom.

    I added a drop of AI magic dust to these already pretty wee flowers & also re-imagined the image as a watercolour

    Any of you following my blog will know I’m currently working on a project fusing my own photography with AI creativity. For more on my journey with AI, check out my Fan Of… series, the latest being a re-imagining of an old Steam Locomotive.
