I actually purchased the Adobe Photographer subscription a while back before the prices went up.? I have not done much with it yet preferring to stick with Lightroom 6 and CS6, but I? have gotten curious about the AI abilities in removing objects.? I have to say I am mostly impressed.? Here are a few examples from a recent trip to Leavenworth.? They are doing a lot of construction along the main drag so there was lots of equipment interfering with the usual nice views, so I took some shots anyway specifically to try the AI removal tools in LR and Photoshop. Here are the results. Original Image with some offending outhouses: Leavenworth WA-1004237 <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/misc/m/Leavenworth+WA-1004237.jpg.html> A little AI removal: Leavenworth WA-1004237-Edit <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/misc/m/Leavenworth+WA-1004237-Edit.jpg.html> Another original image with trucks and structures: Leavenworth WA-1004234 <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/misc/m/Leavenworth+WA-1004234.jpg.html> And AI removal: Leavenworth WA-1004234-Edit <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/misc/m/Leavenworth+WA-1004234-Edit.jpg.html> If you were to blow them up and look carefully I am sure you could see they were worked on.? For one thing, the AI synthisized image is much lower resolution than the Q3 original image.? I think it is 1 or 2 K resolution.? And of course there would be a few artifacts that if I was really industrious I would have to work on.? But by and large they took a totally unacceptable image and made it into a pretty good mediocre image in my unskilled hands.? Maybe you are an old hand at this so these seem pretty amateurish to you.? Maybe I will work on it or maybe I will just take more time to line shots up that do not require the use of this tool.? Be a real photographer rather than a technician. Comments welcome.
