I just got home from work. It's now dark out and it was a dreary SoCal day anyway (May gray/June gloom), no good for photos.

So I fire up the Photoshop beta on a 2020 M1 MacBook Pro and, working from a blank white canvas, create some fantasy Luminous Landscapes in minutes using Generative Fill...

Let's use this thread to post your own AI landscape renders. You can use the PS beta or one of the diffusion apps (even run them at the same time for efficiency of output), but let's stick to landscapes.

Here are my latest "babbling brook in the woods" renders.

I like these. I've never tried creating something using AI from a blank white canvas. Might be an interesting experience. Do you use any real-life pictures as references?

Thanks! I only used text prompts on the white canvas (approx. 8x12" @150ppi), then I use the result with an expanded canvas (maybe 20x12") to generate once again. This tends to give the wide-angle look.

I'll need to try generating from the final size canvas alone to see what happens.

I just tried expanding the canvas on one of my own post-processed (actual) photos, and here is the result. Obviously this adds potential to our existing work.

I stepped into it right here... I was trying to do some nice beach cliff scene (PS only), then I added a pirate ship, then of course some pirates came ashore for a picnic!

Then I tried the same prompt in DiffusionBee...

Following up in PS only using a larger canvas size to start. It's basically a larger version of the smaller renders (ie, same "focal length").

Adding the additional canvas and re-GF'ing gives the better (wider angle) results.

Grand Canyon (PS only), before and after (in the after I expanded the canvas via GF and used GF via Magic Wand selection to replace the river), then with DiffusionBee+PS (+post).

Blank canvas in Photoshop, prompt "luminous landscape", no further canvas enlargement. Clicked repeatedly for variations.

Back in 1985 I was a poor college student on tour in Europe and took black-and-white scenics up in the Swiss Alps-! Here is one of those (original + PS colorized, when doing that was cool on its own!), plus the recreation using PS-only GF from blank canvas (prompt: "winding dirt footpath in the swiss alps, green grass, wildflowers, snow on mountaintops, wooden fence, European barns, puffy clouds in blue sky").

Alps scene this time with DiffusionBee, then extended in PS with a bit of mountain and fence fix.

If I understand correctly Photoshop AI beta works by drawing on a library of images. If so, I look forward to seeing parts of my photos appearing in its creations.

Far as I understand, it draws from selected Adobe stock, royalty-free and open source images. At this point the only way I know to purposely include our own work is to expand the canvas of our own images. Otherwise Adobe may never find us ;-)

And, if they used your image, along with other images you probably wouldn't recognize your 'information' buried in the soup.

Soup! That's what this is, yes! ;-) Adobe Chunky...

Begun in DiffusionBee, finished up in PS.

plugsnpixels · « **Reply #16 on:** June 04, 2023, 09:05:29 pm »

Some farmland somewhere, done in PS (text prompt in white image), extended with GF with elements added via GF, artsied up with Dynamic Auto Painter (on M1 Mac in wine-preloader mode).

plugsnpixels · « **Reply #17 on:** June 04, 2023, 10:13:44 pm »

Starting with DiffusionBee and finishing with PS/DF (including massaging some elements) and more artsy.
