This is an impressive-looking photograph, but you tell that it is a composite image. In the very close foreground, the ears of grain are in sharp focus. Further away, but still in the foreground, they become unfocused. Further away still, the deer itself is in sharp focus again, and the background blurred into so-called 'bokeh'. I'd suggest that the deer was not photographed in this situation at all, and has simply been photo-shopped into a composite of multiple images of a grain field (or grain fields).

Yeah, but that's art of it. The whole point is to imagine something beautiful.
I guess there is going to be more and more of such things.

I was so incensed that I went out this afternoon and took my own:
Unfortunately, I could not induce the stag to poke his head above the grass and look directly into the camera like in the previous image, as he was quite content to sit there chewing his cud. So I had to settle for a slight downward angle in order to see him at all, but it is the best I could achieve at short notice. It started to rain soon after. I would say, though, that the antlers are more impressive in mine.

common, you are acting as an old guy. Its time to adopt and develop new skills, that I'm sure you already have. There is nothing wrong with other image, its just a new concept, call it "painting one's dreams with reality", if you want. Different concept, different values.I was into photography years ago, I was into street photography like Carter Bresson etc.

I think those type images along with AI generated imagery should be watermarked to identify them...Some type of watermark on a corner of the image would suffice...This would maintain the integrity of true natural photography...

There are some industrywide efforts to that effect, where a image file will be able to remember all the changes done to itself.

I have that old Nikon camera with the zoom I've been fiddling with. I'm not into photography but for some reason am obsessed with taking pics of the low flying planes I see all the time so I've had it with me these past several days when I've been outside working. Without fail they come over when I am in the middle of something. Laying on my back under a dashboard and what do I see? C17 with landing gear down looking like it wanted to set down in my driveway. Next it'll be a family of Sasquatch cavorting on the front lawn ......

There's a military base near where you live?

This is what I have been on and on about apparently with no effect on anyone with the stupid Hudson Valley Wave. Large military aircraft first appeared in the vicinity in the 80s and startled the snot out of us - they can be quite weird looking under the right conditions. Then some enterprising locals flew in formation with some sort of ultralights (which I witnessed) to really amp it up and have a good laugh. Then Phil Imbrogno showed up .............................................
That base has more than one area and I've been through almost the whole thing. Hangars full of all sorts of stuff. I got a complete stem to stern tour of a C5 that nobody gets from the maintainers. When you're in the pilot's seat looking down you're three stories up.
