  1. It's already happened! This is what Bing can do with Ryewolf's text:
  2. Agreed. AI images will replace artists for things like album covers etc. As I said above, our camera club has a rule that competition entries must be 100% your own work. This clearly bans use of Generative Fill but I think we're going to have to rely on trust - it's going to be very difficult to police.
  3. Nice set, Geoff. The wren is my favourite.
  4. No-one seems to have mentioned this yet. Is it amazing, or the end of photography as we know it? I've had a first play with it: This was my original image - quite a pleasant scene, but it needs a focal point. Attempt #1 - I asked Photoshop to add a woman in a red dress. This is the result: Quite impressive? Attempt #2 - I asked for a woman in jeans and a red t-shirt: Also pretty good, I thought. Unfortunately, zooming in showed up the limitations.... Pretty scary! So, I think it's really impressive, but there's clearly a lot of scope for improvement. It's still only in Beta though. Having said that, as a camera club competition secretary, I am somewhat concerned over the implications for competition images in the future. Our rules say that competition entries must be "all your own work" and an AI-generated object in the image clearly falls foul of that, but I'm not sure it's going to be possible to police that. The alternative is to allow it, but that seems to me as defeating the object of taking photographs - we may as well just compare AI images. What do you think? Gareth
  5. There were plenty of excellent images to choose from this week, but my favourite was this one from Monkey: The full thread is here. It's well worth a look as there are some other great photos of planes in flight there. Well done, Monkey!
  6. Oh.. wow! I certainly didn't expect that. Thank you very much.
  7. I like these, Jeff - particularly the lighting and the dark skies.

    A really nice video, Paul. It does look like a good place to visit.
  9. My images from Hitchin Camera Club's annual "Scavenger Hunt". Two hours walking around town, looking for things to photograph from a list... Two hands Something with a point Something orange A musical instrument Concentric circles Something fast and something slow A postcard of Hitchin Parking restriction Air A percentage Discarded Left over from the coronation String Out of sight A small square A little plant Security Reflections Three lights ICM An arch Photography equipment, that’s not a camera The Spirit of Hitchin A bench Stripes
  10. Congratulations, Geoff!
  11. It's my turn to choose the POTW again. There were plenty of excellent images to choose from this week - I particularly enjoyed Ryewolf's photos of Portmerion and as usual, there were some great macro insect shots from Paul. However, my choice for POTW is this one from CMunzel: I really liked the composition on this one, making it something different. Full thread HERE. Well done, Cheryl!
