Landscapes and even war-torn news images are being faked constantly and you don’t even know. Cameras make near-perfect photos and more so every day. But is that what a photo is all about?
Get Gavs Filmist 2 film presets even if you don’t shoot film. There’s a free pack you’ll love too.
I got bored of AI fast. I wanted natural images with practical effects that create an atmosphere. I’ve been studying icons like Stegliz and Hamilton as I work on a new editing pack inspired by their styles. These are not like Ai, they are not pretending to be something they are not.
On this weeks Pro Photography Podcast… Are photos even real anymore.?
On this Professional Photography Podcast we talk about photo news, the Cine Still scandal, and what Ai is doing to photography. The conflicts in the world are showing how deceptive it can be and new tech like Content Credentials is making systems to know what we are seeing.
Real photos from real people not from AI and we need to start using that. I shoot film and make things like Filmist film presets to keep a grounded focus on that.
Real photos tell a story of a person place or thing. They are the nouns of images and they matter. Ai-generated images will never be real photos. That does not mean they are not a real part of the market now. Only that we need to understand the difference.
