Re: AI generated rainwear images

Touching up a model with Photoshop is deception but if the model is not the main focus but the PVC dress she wears (I can dream) because it is catalogue work then not so much. Okay, so it sounds we are in agreement here. AI is not deceptive per se, and photoshopped images neither, as long as they a...

Re: AI generated rainwear images

Photography is no doubt an art but the subject is always of a real thing in one way or another and usually does not seek to deceive directly. Using AI to generate images for yourself and experiment is great and your examples are very compelling. What concerns me is that people will cease to both wi...

Re: AI generated rainwear images

A photograph is supposed to be a record of an event and in that respect all AI generated photos are a lie. Not necessarily; a photograph can also be art: a thought-provoking image. And seeing an attractive person wearing some gear you can fully appreciate can certainly provoke specific thoughts. So...

Re: AI generated rainwear images

I suppose it mostly depends on what you want to get out of looking at images. Personally I can appreciate AI generated images because my focus is mainly on getting inspiration. Real images are better still, mostly because you know they are real and there is sort of a story connected to the picture. ...

Re: Blue Børmax PVC raincoat

Correct me if I am wrong, but Bormax is a brand that got popular in Denmark in the sixties and seventies and was not produced much longer after that. That would mean the coat she is wearing is several decades old already. Of course one could speculate where she got the raincoat from, maybe she is an...

Re: Something a bit different!

When you are in the lucky situation that you have a good excuse to wear a drysuit, why would you want one that doesn't look like one? It is not like someone would also wear it to the supermarket when it rains. Let me take this back. They have another clip of a lady coming out of the water and turni...

Re: Something a bit different!

It seems a bit strange to make drysuits that look like normal rainwear. When you are in the lucky situation that you have a good excuse to wear a drysuit, why would you want one that doesn't look like one? It is not like someone would also wear it to the supermarket when it rains. The only valid tar...
