    Monochrome Conversions
    While many subjects look best when photographed in full colour, sometimes you may prefer a monochrome alternative. Images containing a full colour palette can appear very ‘busy’ and distract the viewer. Reducing the scene to its tonal values eliminat

    How Does Generative AI Affect Photo Imaging?
    Expect to hear a lot more about generative AI this year, not only in association with computer-generated texts and translations, but also for images, voice recordings and even video clips. AI-based tools are increasingly relevant for photo-imaging. S
