I am not a fan of AI, I stopped using it in my work months ago. It often looks to perfect if that makes sense. I think the imperfection of a artist hand gives a piece of work character. I think you did good on making this your own. It's a very somber feel. Overall a nice work.

Thanks so much for your review. I agree, AI tools can definitely make things appear too perfect, especially when used to create photorealistic portraits. As for this image, it was far from perfect after the first couple of rounds. Among other 'fixes' and imperfections was the dirty water in the foreground, a tree that appeared to grow up out of one of the boats, a small white modern power boat in the background, and what was suppose to be a monkey on the dock that looked more like a cartoonish baby Sasquatch. Like any other technology, AI is just another tool in the tool bag. It has it's strengths and flaws like everything else. I was fortunate to be able to recover the not-so-perfect AI rendering and form it into this image.

This landscape photograph is breathtaking! The use of colours and shading in this portrait is masterful, creating a sense of depth and dimension that's truly captivating. Well done! I wish I had a SIX to award. Keep them coming!

A lovely scene you have created here. Beautiful soft colors and a soft mystical feeling making one feel like they are cruising softly down the river. The people and structures add realism. You are very talented in your artistic imagination.

Love the soft tones you used. The soft colors and the scenic view definitely spell tranquility to me. The view here can lull you right into calm. The scene is lovely and truly a joy to view! You could get lost in here! Very nicely done! You so earned this six star review! :o) Helvi

Love the scene of the quite and tranquil ocean with fishing boats, native huts, and tall coconut trees. The layers of sunset colors reflected in the water is so dramatic. You have composed and conceptualized this well. A pretty exotic scene and yes this looks like a setting in the Philippine Island. A beautiful tropical scene to behold. Virtual SIX.

Of course. This reminds me of my weekends in Boracai, a white sand beach in the Philippines. Way back in the 80's it was still a bit "unspoiled"
