Tuesday, Nov 15, 2022 - Dave - 11-15-2022 Since I woke up at 2:00 am (AGAIN! GRRRR!) I might as well be useful by starting thhe Daily. A few days ago the morning was cold and the sky clear except for one cloud. But it was an impressive cloud...     RE: Tuesday, Nov 15, 2022 - Luv2shoot - 11-15-2022 I see a grumpy man's face in the cloud.  You can see his protruding nose and and big chin. He is looking North Westerly.  Do you see it? I know that some time ago, I posted a photo of a RHINO that I had converted using software called DEEP DREAM GENERATOR.   I posted it again just as a reminder.  I know this type of extreme manipulation is not for everyone, but I thought I would share a new feature of the software that blows my mind. So, image #1 is the RHINO manipulation I was talking about. Now the latest feature of the software is that you can start with your image and ADD TEXT PROMPTS and AI will alter your original according to the TEXT PROMPTS that you posted.   So, image #2  is the original image that I took at the Oak Hill Cemetery.  Image #3 is the result of using my ORIGINAL IMAGE plus the following prompts that I added:  1) autumn color leaves, foggy fantasy cemetery, and creamy shadows. But that is not all. Image #4 is created totally by AI.  I started with a blank canvas.  This photo is NOT MINE!   To the blank canvas, I added the prompts: Sailboats, Sunset, Reflections on the Blue Water, and Birds in the Sky.  Look at the result!  I WISH I COULD CREATE A PHOTO LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"   I got everything I asked for except for the birds in the sky.   But now I truly feel that they have gone too far.    LORELL RE: Tuesday, Nov 15, 2022 - Dreamin - 11-15-2022 Dave, fantastic cloud.....at first I thought you were going to say a big fire...when they lit the buildings across from me, a hugh smoke cloud rose like this one, but without the sun on it......funny how smoke and clouds are so similar! Lorell, I think image three is amazing....so much detail and variety in colors and textures and lines....wow! photo two is very soft and subtle.....I like what it did, it amazes me what computers are now capable of! That last one....it stuns me.....guess the program has a a whole library to choose from....we won't need to go out and take photos anymore.... Takes all the fun out of it though.......thanks for sharing..... Just so you all know, I did look at and read the last few days of posts....sorry I have not contributed much...... RE: Tuesday, Nov 15, 2022 - Man From Ironbark - 11-15-2022 I saw the face too, Lorell. I immediately though of smoke also, Natalie. Very interesting playing with manipulations. Well done with those manipulations, Lorell. RE: Tuesday, Nov 15, 2022 - Rich - 11-15-2022 Dave, sorry for your early rising! Quite a dramtic cloud! Lorell. I don't know if we are looking at the same face but I see Santa without his hat. A nice bushy beard. I always liked the Rhino, so cool! I am a little confused on the cemetery photo. the manip  doesn't look like the original building at all. I do like the dreamy look to it though. Right out of a horror film! Cue the vampire! Sailboat phot needs a little tweaking but it is certainly amazing. I remember when you could always believe the photo but not since Photoshop and other software. There are so many fake photos I can spot floating around the internet that people take for real photos. Hi Natalie and Peter. Yes Natalie I have been lurking and liking what I see on the site but now that winter is here, not much new from me. I will have to fall back on my car show photos. RE: Tuesday, Nov 15, 2022 - Man From Ironbark - 11-15-2022 These orange trees need a boat. The house is engulfed. Getting some nice sunrises though. RE: Tuesday, Nov 15, 2022 - Dreamin - 11-16-2022 Oh, no, Peter! Way too much rain.......your second shot is beautiful!! RE: Tuesday, Nov 15, 2022 - Luv2shoot - 11-19-2022 Yes, Peter, the second shot is really awesome. And Rich, I did not realize it until I looked at it for a while that creation #3 contains NONE of my stuff. The building, the trees, and the monuments were all replaced by THEIRS (the software's pictures). They, Deep Dream Generator, also added a monument on the ground in front of their mausoleum. I did not use this one for my club meeting since none of it was mine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RE: Tuesday, Nov 15, 2022 - Dreamin - 11-19-2022 That's weird, Lorell....I did not notice until you said it was ALL not yours. Funny it did not use any of your original.....
