Exploring AI Image Editors: Features, Limitations, and Recommendations

Hi everyone,

I’ve recently started experimenting with AI image editors and am fascinated by the possibilities they offer, from enhancing photos to generating creative art.

However, I’m still learning about the best tools and techniques. I’m curious about which AI image editors you recommend for both beginners and advanced users.

Specifically, I’d like to know about features like background removal, style transfer, and realistic image generation.

Are there any limitations or common pitfalls I should be aware of?

Also, which platforms provide the best balance between usability and creative control?

Eleanor,

Your question is timely and apt. The new AI potential of our familiar programs are opening a wide and terrifying array of new compositional possibilities. If one is a graphic designer, one can bypass us photographers!

I don’t pretend to be any expert in the available AI options but I can share my perspective as it relates to my creative needs.

So, speaking as a photographer, I want my best work to be the main subject I chose to photograph!

Start with Photoshop: it’s very easy to select a person or object and remove the background. That’s a very mature process as is simply removing objects or people you don’t want in your picture using fill with AI reference to continuing patterns, textures and completing partial object to fill in the empty space.

For sky replacement, ON1 appears to be the most mature.

For shifting skins color distribution of the faces, Phase One, “Capture One” could be the easiest and most advanced to use.

For very large magnification, your photographic integrity and style can be protected as you enlarge, but without losing fine detail. Topaz Megapixel AI brilliantly creates more pixels that appear native to the photograph. All this maintains the integrity of the photographers creative work. Topaz focus can correct focus or movement blur.

However, we can go further than that to completely omitting the camera!

I have little experience with AI creation of photos or modifications such as adding people in a helicopter but these could be fun to experiment with.

I might try asking the background to a full length portrait to be redwood Forrest or dawn by a pond in the woods with a mist clinging to the ground. That’s what I would find worth exploring.
