That’s great! I hope you didn’t correct them.But here’s the rub: it was a straight print from a straight photograph of someone wearing a Queen Elizabeth II mask at a Jubilee street party. The adjacent negative shows the mask side-on.
Could you explain that further. I'm not familiar with the concept.
Some people like loud music and spicy food. Others tastes are quieter. Some people like me enjoy Velvia while others like more sedate Provia or Portra. But that doesn't make it fake or not authentic. We still see the scene pretty much as it was as long as there's no cloning.
Some people feel the entire universe is an illusion.
- I heard a smell,
- I smelled a sound,
- I saw a man trying to take a straight photo, but it all came out crooked.
That’s great! I hope you didn’t correct them.
And some people feel there is a god. Strange funny world, isn't it?
Don...I accept that there is photography and also that there is no photography. Both conditions are equally true. Can you accept that?
Not I. I was happy to ponder the double deception. I was being accused of deception, when in fact the reality itself was staged.
I think I may have asked this question a while back, but I do not recall anyone responding, so I will throw it out there again. How do you think AI generated images will affect your photography?
Please refrain from any societal level comments. This is a photography forum, though more and more I think members have lost interest in photography, and are content to discuss subjects like the best pickle relish to put in tuna fish salad,
And no to the pickle relish.I think I may have asked this question a while back, but I do not recall anyone responding, so I will throw it out there again. How do you think AI generated images will affect your photography?

Sirius - no color film ever represented real world color as our eyes see it. As far as Velvia goes, it could differentiate certain hues of brilliant green or purple better than any other film, but only if you worked within its realistic contrast range, which people seldom did, and just wanted to go hyper with it. Astia was the most color accurate overall. I once shot an old pre-E6 Agfachrome 50 which would render warm tones better than any film since, and would even capture fluorescent lichen and algae colors, but couldn't yield saturated Spring greens. Neither could classic ole Ektachrome 64; but it would do sage greens and bluish neutrals better than any current film. Every single color neg film ever invented has certain serious color repro issues.

But I have little patience for the current craze to just go hog wild overboard with every silly app and so forth. That's their right; but I'll never personally call it photography or go out of my way to view it.
I think it will guide me to produce photographs NOT resembling AI generated images.I think I may have asked this question a while back, but I do not recall anyone responding, so I will throw it out there again. How do you think AI generated images will affect your photography?
The tungsten version of Ektachrome seemed the most accurate at one time in relation to controlled artificial lighting. But Fuji dupe film, basically tungsten-balanced Astia was even better. But a lot depends on the nature of the colors involved. What might work well for reproducing artificial colors might have quite a few relatively blind spots in nature. For example, a purple dyed fabric which looks the same as a purple flower to us might not look the same at all to a particular film or species of insect. It's a complex topic, and now with fewer color films to choose from.

I don’t and hope to never pay attention to artificially produced anything. Fake is fake, even if it may look straight.
In a word, it won”t. I would much rather first become part of the fake “decisive moment” movement.
Almost not at all. It strikes me that to use AI you have to set it a task. I don’t have any imagination - which is why I do photography rather than painting or writing novels - so I wouldn’t know how to instruct it.I think I may have asked this question a while back, but I do not recall anyone responding, so I will throw it out there again.

AI could lead to a much better tool for removing dust spots from negative scans though …
I think what may happened if social media gets clogged with landscape shots, photographers might just switch to personal and street photography where Ai might be less important or used.
