~My Thoughts on AI in Photography, and in Gerneral~

I’ve always had strong emotions and ideas toward AI, and it’s uses, sometimes it can be helpful, but most of the time people use it for lazy and uncreative reasons. I never really liked AI generated art because it takes away all creativity from the art, it also takes away much of what can be described as the soul of the artwork since it takes much time and humanized strokes to creating it. This triggers me as well since it is taking and stealing art from the internet without the creators’ permission. Though it may seem I am very against AI I do still think that it could be helpful with finding inspiration for creating something new or it can be used as a tool.

AI in photography can be used as a helpful way to fix or touch up some photos in which I am all for. If you have a photo that could use more space like a cut off tree you can use AI to bring it into the photo. But if you’re going to use AI to generate a whole new and different photo in total then that would be the wrong way to use this incredible tool. You can use this tool like with Facial Recognition, Red Eye Fix, Subject Recognition, Zoom and Enhance.

The main thing you need for this type of photo is by having a slow shutter speed, putting your camera on a tripod along with having a dark room. I think the photographer was able to capture this shot by setting their ISO very low like 200 more or less. They would also be able to achieve this by making their f stop at around 11 or 16. This photo is eye catching because it is simple and very detailed. It is very smooth and your eyes either immediately go to the subject or the light shape. The hair and lines within the light source help bring detail and texture into the photo. The main thing about it is the soft colors and the simplicity of it makes it very eye-catching in my opinion.

Three things I like about the composition for these photos are the sharpness and the detail you find when looking at these. Another thing I like about these is the pop of red and warmth you find from the subject with the dark colors surrounding it. One last thing I enjoyed about this assignment is how easy and simple it was to find a subject that could fit the Triptych.

Henri Cartier Bresson is a very talented photographer, and I take quite a bit of inspiration from his work. He has great timing and knows how to capture the feeling on the subject and what’s going on. Timing is everything to him, because if you take too long with your timing, you’ll miss the moment, and Henri knew when to do so. The feeling you’ll get when seeing his work is extraordinary because it’ll feel like you are in the moment with them. The subject, the setting and the tone are all working together well and keep your interesting in hand. These photos are unique and bring so many emotions, depending on which ones you are looking at. His photos are very inspiring and bring much joy to the world of photography for many. Photos like this are rare and each one is unique and carefully timed for the best outcome.
