About the Image(s)
This is a Mobile click of Paris Louvre Museum , Many a times even when I have my Sony A7R camera , I use my iPhone to click some images, for certain type of images I find mobile does a better job at capturing the frames.
In this image I wanted to get the foreground pyramid in perfect symmetry aligned with the background structure. I have also attached the original image of my mobile , which was clicked in vertical mode. However since here 4:3 aspect is required, I used the modern tool of AI inbuilt in Adobe photoshop , where using Generative fill , I used crop tool to expand my frame boundaries and the vacant parts of the image were filled by built AI of photoshop. It has done a fairly decent job or rather a very good job of matching the background building and extending it on either side of my originally captured image.
Since this is not a competition I was tempted to use AI tool , to complete my frame to suit the requirement of our website requirement.

It is amazing to me to see what can be done with AI tools - but unsettling as well. This is certainly an imposing image, and the cloud formations really emphasize that. I have to admit that knowing it was generated affects how I feel about it. Posted: 04/13/2025 15:08:37
Prasad, you have done an excellent job of pre visualizing your image and then accomplishing it with the help of AI.

I also love the architecture of the building and would love to see more, so my curiosity is whetted.
I agree with the others that the clouds in the GenFill image look sharp and unnatural.
I see more and more text-to-image and other AI tools that purport to show a travel destination. Just downright wrong, in my opinion. Posted: 04/17/2025 17:56:07
