I know some people get a little agitato when it comes to AI (and in some cases rightly so, I do get it) but, for the most part, whenever I've used it, it's really been just as a surrogate photoshop tool. Here's a case in point. The above snap was a photograph I took of a Heron food store earlier this year. But, me being me, and in an ideal world (question for the ages: would there even be a Heron food store in an ideal world?), I'd have preferred it if there were no people or cars 'blocking the view'; so, I asked AI to lose them. And, I said, while you're about it, overlay a few bold and vibrant brush strokes. This is how it came back. It's like Hockney's A Bigger Splash except without the swimming pool. Or California. I like it. But then I would, wouldn't I?
This is the "after", can you post the "before" for comparison?
ReplyDeleteNot sure what you mean, Martin? The before and after pics top & tail my post.
DeleteAh, sorry, was reading through an RSS reader, was only showing me one pic.
DeleteI have no idea what one of those is, sorry. (Maybe I should ask AI.)
DeleteWarming up for the pun contest already I see
ReplyDeleteYou know it.
DeleteGreat stuff, John. You, of course, know what 1974 album has a Heron auto shop on the back cover?
ReplyDeleteI don’t, though it sounds like I should. I’m gonna say AC/DC. Or is it UFO? Do tell!
