  • Something Like That

    This is a discussion about Generative AI, but not in the way you think. A couple of image processors are starting to embed AI into their software. You can let it process the entire picture, or you can add subject matter like a new sky, a better background or Ronald McDonald. I let it process…

  • Boom, Like That

    This is a spring picture. There is no question about it. It’s a little bit elderly because I made it in New Mexico. I did a lot of work to it. I made it into what approximates a painting. I also cropped it radically. I particularly like the colors. They are very bright and punchy.…

  • Not Quite Yet

    The weather has been very pleasant here at farmville, so musical miss wandered around making pictures of bright, flowery spring pictures. She does pretty well with a little technical help from me, stuff like how do I make this iPhone have a blurred background meaning some pictures with short depth of field. Meanwhile, Mr. Grumpy…

  • Pretty in Purple

    Here’s something a little softer as the week starts to come to a close. I went back to the well and found an out take of something I published a few weeks ago and started to work on it in various ways. I wanted it to look like a painting, and I wanted it to…

  • Growth

    This photograph took some work because the original file wasn’t much to look, The light was horrible. So, I did a lot — more than I normally do — work in post production to make something even remotely interesting. Did it work? I don’t know. What do you think? That’s one of the disadvantages of…

  • In Nature

    Once again WordPress is being twitchy. It turns font choices into some kind of serif type that is ugly to my eye and that I would never use. It did let me reduce the font size and I’ll find out about appearance when I try to enhance this post. Anyway. This photograph is a classic…

  • The Pictures of April

    Looking at this wall of color impresses even me. Given my numbers for April I’m not sure about anybody else. But, no matter, I had fun making these photographs. I surely knocked off a lot of rust and I started to see again. I saw small things, light, color and things I would have missed…

  • Growth

    Yesterday was very hard. Being in two places at once usually is. With the amount of hugs and kisses that were passed around and around I realized that most of us hadn’t seen each other since late 2019 or very early 2020 when we were locked down. Seeing each other was almost as good as…

  • Both Sides Now

    I’ve been having a really hard time writing this post. It’s not just because the clouds are pretty on their own, but because I’ve had a really hard time writing anything at all. And, today is a very busy day. Two shows in one day with different musicians. One is out near Indio, CA at…
