It took something like 200 iterations to get Midjourney's Stable Diffusion instance to produce a singing meadowlark *with its mouth open as if singing.* It took almost as many to get the black band that runs across its chest...and NONE of the ones with their mouths open have a good band on them. Lots of cool birds in this series but most of them look like sparrows, woodpeckers, kingfishers, or hummingbirds. Not Sturnella neglecta. This is why post-processing in Photoshop remains a must. (These are some prelims for the cover art for an upcoming musical single I'll debut on 8-string guitar this Friday at Michael Garfield at HoneyMoon Brewery • Santa Fe, NM 💗) #generativeart #aiart #diffusionnetwork #stablediffusion #stablediffusionart #aiartist #aibird #birdart #meadowlark #sturnellaneglecta #westernmeadowlark #birdsong #neuralnetwork #neuralnetworkart #santafeartist https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjl8Lbnsccy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
