Hi All 👋 My latest entry for Terri’s Sunday Stills: Rain.
Starting with a downpour whilst we were on holiday in Malibu, CA.
Drookit skwurrels & ring doos in the garden.
Susan & I are not much bothered by the rain & won’t let it get in the way of our plans, be it a ferry trip on the west coast of Scotland…
…or getting out & about on our bikes for shopping or just enjoying a ride.
Hi All 👋 My latest post for Macro Monday
Known in Scots as a “foggy bummer”, this is a buff-tailed bumble bee.
Hi All 👋 Feel free to join this weekly challenge whenever you think, “I’m a fan of…” (see below for how-to).
This week, some snowdrops get the Hot Mods treatment.
I started off with a very basic picture of some snowdrops & let my inner chimp’s (Godfrey) imagination run crazy; this is the baseline picture.
My first idea was to have the snowdrops in an ornate frame but seeming to grow out of it.
I did a Hot Mods watercolour transformation of the seascape.

This is also my post for Terri’s Sunday Stills: Editing.
This time, Lensy’s getting the Hot Mods treatment.
I used this shot of the Clackmannan Bridge as my baseline shot for my first re-imagining.
My idea for this shot was to have a dragon guarding the bridge.
I wasn’t specific enough in the prompt about Lensy, so the AI removed him from the image; back to the prompt
My next shots are variations of modifications to Lensy sat on a mossy branch.
I was going for an enchanted forest setting with runic symbols/glyphs. I was happy withy the outcome for these.
Next up, Alloa Tower House gets the Hot Mod treatment.
Again, staying with the mystical/enchanted theme.
Clackmannan Tower gets a similar treatment.
For these, I was trying for a fusion of old & futuristic. I designed the prompt so that the image inside Lensy was an old-style, mystical tower, whilst outside was a futuristic world.
The first re-imagining combined old/futuristic within the lensball, so back to the prompt. The others came out pretty well.
Prompt engineering is an evolving function; for the same prompt, you will get different outputs from different photos. The prompt needs to be tweaked constantly to fit the original photo & the desired outcome. So, join me over the next few weeks as I delve further into the world of prompt engineering & artwork manipulation.
Come back next week to see how a simple shot of some snowdrops…
…led to a tottie wee bit of an obsession & the following end result.
