Some favorite Zoo snaps…

...made into luministic paintings by Nano Banana 2 (AI). A little while ago, thanks to Gemini AI, I discovered the beauty of luministic art. I have since then used it quite a bit on some of my favorite pictures. I started with some pictures of Arwen, and vacations in Austria, and now, I have been going through some of my favorite Zoo pictures to make AI generated "paintings" of them. (Nano Banana Pro 🍌 & Discovering “Luminism”). I only used my own photographs, made by me during my visits to Burgers' Zoo, throughout the years. When the original picture has already been uploaded to Flickr, I will do my best to add the links to those original pictures. I know people are against the use of AI, but I would not use it to steal any pictures of others. I don't want to make any money with this either. I just love how the filters look on some of my favorite (Zoo) pictures. […]

Like watercolours in the rain 🌧️

Going through the motionsEnding upNowhere at allCan't see the sun on my wallGoing through emotionsEnding upOn a frozen morningWith a heart not even brokenSeems I've been runningAll my lifeAll my lifeSeems I've been runningAll my lifeAll my lifeAll my lifeLike watercolours in the rain© Per Gessle & Marie Fredriksson (Roxette) This title is based on a beautiful song by Roxette, so of course I wanted to share the song with you as well (video beneath the "read more" bit). But, this post is one where I am sharing some pictures of mine, made into watercolor paintings by Nano Banana Pro (Gemini AI). I know not everyone can appreciate things that AI can do. I enjoy using it for editing my pictures (and sometimes making new ones based on my ideas). If you're interested, then do click the read more link. I have linked all the AI images to the original pictures, taken by me, on my Flickr account. […]

I was playing with Nano Banana Pro, with some different painting styles.
First image is my original picture, taken during a hike on the Tyrnauer Alm, in August 2022.
Second image is a Post-Painterly Abstraction version.
Third image is a Luminism version.
I know not everyone "enjoys" AI "slob", but for me, playing with my own images, it's a fun way to learn more about different painting styles.
