Its...uh.... a very happy-looking family... 🥹😜😟
I may have to make this a series. In years to come, I KNOW this feature will be better (and I'm hopeful for it), but until then, I will just have to laugh at the results.
But hey, let's give AI some credit. It got the shadow right 🙂
I'm looking forward to heading out to Unique Photo next week to teach three of my favorite topics:
1. Tone Theory
2. Color Theory
3. Composition... uh... theory
It's gonna be a blast, so if you are in the area, come on over to the camera show. I'll be speaking all day Saturday and one session Sunday morning before I head home.
I'll be doing a 3-hour workshop on Color Theory. I'll be talking about a lot of the stuff you have heard over the years with a pleasant mix of some new ideas 🙂 I'm looking forward to it.

If you ever hear anyone say, "If it doesn't look good in color, make it Black & White" ... run.
If your mentor or someone you aspire to in Photography says that... find a new mentor 😉
The truth is, if someone is saying that they:
a. Don't understand Colors impact on Tone
b. Don't understand Tones impact on Color
A good BW or color image is a symbiotic relationship between tone and color. Your color won't look good without proper tonal treatment, and your BW image won't be any better if you don't understand how various color properties inform your BW tones.
That statement is a statement that should be banned from everyone's brain. Learn, study, and practice color and tone management. Then you can make ANY image a GREAT color or BW image.
