    I’m starting my historic Scotland?????? series with some shots of old ships in Dundee taken on our recent visit.

    Unfortunately, we weren’t aware that some historical interest sites in Dundee are closed on Mondays. These shots are all external, but we will be visiting Dundee again & getting some internal shots of these old vessels.

    I decided to do a few AI transformations for this tranquil scene (see the carousel). I thought a good starting point would be a mystical setting; both runs came out really well, although I think the first looks more like the structure of the Tower as it is. Next up, I went for an enchanted/baroque fusion; the second in this run came out looking very oriental. It was back to a mystical setting next but blended with cyberpunk. The third set of runs is in a style called Hollywood Regency; this, to me, looks very Art Deco. My final re-imagining was in the Regency style. What’s your favourite

    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

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