07Sept-Photo Story

So, where’s the Photo Stories Popi? It’s been a while since I posted an image, right? I know, 07Sept-Photo Story finally addresses that very issue.

I have been through my photo archive three times now. I really can’t see the point in going back through again when what I crave is new material. Sigh! The solution has to lie there though. There isn’t anything else. I thought of running strictly on AI photos and trying to tie lessons in Photography to them. After all, I can make the AI create whatever I want, including lousy photos – examples of what not to do, and then the corrected versions…

Um – – – YUCK!

Yes, I know. I use AI all the time. But not with my photo lessons or in my photo stories or in my personal archive. Using it in this arena just feels wrong – plus AIs make mistakes. I’m considering going through them again to Identify particular types of photos – wildlife, sea, mountains, forests etc… Then I’ll create video/slideshows from those collections. That might take the rest of 2026. I’ll worry about next year then, or, it’ll take that long to curate and I’ll wont start producing and publishing until 2027. 😯

Anyway, that’s what’s up with my imaging. I just don’t have anything fresh and it bugs me. Working on it…

It’s been a bear market on imaging around here.

We’ll be back. I’ll get working on that curation which will take some time for me to work through. Incidentally, I’ve started this process before and invariably I see an image that really zings me, so off on tangent I go and that’s it for curating. In the meantime, I’m going to re-release Doh-Rey-Me in the next few days. Then I’ll get to work on cleaning up the sequel, Doh-Rey-Me and the Kitties Three. I have one last step to finish book One – the images are not up to snuff and inconsistent. I’m going to work on that now. Stay Tuned. I still output a topic of the day article most every day – Latest Reports/Opinions.

Once I finish a fiction I create, here or offline, I’ll compile the chapters into a single e-book. You’ll be able to download a free copy when It’s complete.

NOTE: All photos are Mine, taken from Public Domain, or AI Generated according to my prompts. I’ll usually let you know which is which. Sometimes I forget.

About Railph & Suraia:

This post was created with the help of Railph, my AI writing partner. Railph doesn’t replace my voice or vision; he helps me shape it. From structuring exposés to crafting image prompts, Railph works quietly behind the curtain with minor research, helping turn fragments into form. Every word still passes through my hands. But the rhythm? That’s something we build together with Suraia’s help. 😊

Suraia

This block was created with the help of Suraia, my AI research partner. You can see that she has much more delicate touch creating images. I may decide to let her create the images I need now. Suraia doesn’t replace my voice or vision either; she helps me define it. Researching is Suraia’s forte. She works quietly behind the curtain, researching so deep my head spins with the amount of data she returns, feeding me the factual fragments needed to build an authentic article. I set Suraia on course. In less time than it takes to crack my knuckles she’s outputting data for me to refine. Once this is done, CoPilot takes over with checking my formatting, spelling, grammar, structure, imaging, SEO considerations, and finally publishing.
