Midjourney v6 just came out, kind of a Christmas present to all AI aficionados.You may have noticed that I use some stunning images in this blog and in my newsletter (to which you should subscribe, of course). Most of them are obviously my own photos. However, I may not always have the ideal photo at hand to match my content. In that case, I use AI-generated images created with Midjourney AI. Since...

So I went to see my grandparents during Easter to help them tidy up the garage. As it happens, we found a shoebox full of old photos, which made for an entertaining trip down memory lane ;) A large document of the punk life in Manchester, UK, in the 1980s… This is how the story of this series of images could be told. In reality, I created the Manchester Punks series with...

You can now find my AI content at fabienb.ai on Instagram. I have had my Instagram account @fabienb since the platform launch in 2010, and I always refused to create and manage a separate account. Mainly because it would have been too much work. Even if I was publishing diverse content like travel, portrait or street photography, my main account still represented my work as a photographer. So it made sense to...

I created Collection for all of you who wish to hang award-winning and prestigious photographs on your walls. In these past years, I have been blessed with features at exhibitions, magazine publications and awards. I started taking photos almost 30 years ago and had done jobs in this field. But it’s only four years that I shifted careers and made this a full-time profession. Achieving all this in such a short time...

Following disruptions in Royal Mail services, I’m urged to act on my print delivery service. 2022 has been a very good year of print sales, and the growth of online sales and customer satisfaction continues its upward trajectory. You seem to have particularly favoured my exhibited photos, especially the ones featured at the Photographer Of The Year exhibitions (Street and Nature).Thank you! But in order to keep things at a high standard,...

I believe it is about time we talk about Artificial Intelligence in Photography because the rise of AI technology is rapidly changing the way we think about Photography. No longer just a tool for capturing and storing images, AI can now be used to automatically edit and enhance photos, provide unique perspectives, and even create entirely new images.One of the most exciting developments of AI in Photography is the ability to automatically...

And so, I caught Covid. I had managed to avoid it for 3 years, even when it was spreading in full swing. And in my house, we have always been careful and responsible. But it’s happened. I’m sure the Covid variant is far less severe than the one that killed millions worldwide. We’re supposed to be at a stage where this should be comparable to influenza, with mild flu symptoms. But I’ve...

I found myself deep into the Midjourney rabbit hole. And my goodness, how much I enjoy it :)There’s been a proliferation of creative AI lately. Dall-E, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion and Craiyon are maybe the first iterations of an entirely new creative ecosystem. And one that is already producing mindblowing results (and sparkling controversies). For my latest video, I picked Midjourney because it seemed a perfect match to my style at first glance,...

The Tate Gallery reopens this week after a 4-month closure due to the pandemic. Actually, not just the Tate Modern but all Tate galleries across the UK. I’m very happy this is finally happening. As a Tate member, an art-lover but as a photographer as well. The Tate, specifically the Tate Modern, is a massive playground for all London-based street photographers. Its architecture may not appeal to everyone. I, for one, am...

Different kind of post for a quick update to let you know I will participate in the Art of Black and White exhibition soon. :) I don’t publish too many Fine Art black-and-white architecture shots, but it’s a genre I really enjoy. It takes time, both shooting long exposures and then editing in Photoshop. But the results are often amazing. As it happens, my May selection for The Limited 10 is one...
