Midjourney Realism: August 2022 vs March 2023
Midjourney V5 was recently released, and I wanted to compare Version 3 images from August 2022 with images created using the same prompts in March 2023 and see how they compared in terms of realism.
Midjourney Concept Art: A 1980s Dystopia
I've enjoyed using Midjourney, a new online AI image generator, for creating images. I enjoy creating images within a particular theme. Last time I created many images within the theme of "Retro Space Travel Photos". This time the theme is "a 1980s Dystopia".
Retro Space Travel Photos from Midjourney
I tried creating some new Midjourney images using their recently released Test options and loved this retro space travel aesthetic that I found.
Realistic Midjourney Images
On 28 August 2022 Midjourney released some new options for improving image quality that allow you to create much more realistic images.
More Midjourney Images
More images I created using Midjourney.
For these images I added --ar 16:9 to to the end of each prompt so that the images would be generated in a 16:9 aspect ratio, the standard ratio for widescreen televisions and most films and TV shows.
Making Midjourney Monsters
Since I was a teenager I've been fascinated by the artwork of H.R. Giger, the Swiss artist who, among many other works, designed the creature (later dubbed "xenomorph") in the 1979 film Alien.
Comparing Craiyon, DALL-E 2, and Midjourney
I thought I'd add photos from three AI image generators; Craiyon, DALL-E 2 and Midjourney.
Comparing different photo styles in DALL-E 2
Wanted to show how DALL-E 2 will create different images based on the same subject matter, depending on what style you add to the prompt.
To recap, DALL-E 2 is a new online tool that allows users to generate images from text prompts in a few seconds. They can generate images of the same subject in many different photo styles, depending on what instructions are included in the prompt.
Below are four photos of each subject, each in a different style. Below each image in the caption is the text prompt that was used to create them.
A Samurai riding a horse on Mars
A photograph of a Cyborg exploring Tokyo at night
A Rhino Surfing in the Sea
A Raccoon eating a smoked meat sandwich
A Tyrannosaurus chasing a TTC streetcar down the street
