Looking back at some of my earliest AI renders and scrounging thru the thousands of rejected varriations, I’ve been finding several interesting pieces.  This was a test image created when Midjourney was developing a “remaster” feature two years ago.  It’s a variation on the second image I ever created, re-rendered using a later Midjourney model… maybe version 3 or 4, I’m not sure.  Of course that newer version is now old and instead of seeing the improvement in the technology I’m looking at this render with new eyes and seeing it for what it is.  I love the texture and contrast of the whole thing so I fixed up the composition and re-did the color correction.

Personally I’m getting less excited by the newest versions of Midjourney.  The development seems to be barreling toward pure photographic realism, losing all the interesting artistic textures.  I’m going to have to try to find ways to add additional prompts to get some of the abstract goodness back in current version 6.1.
