I really hate how heavy the editing is on some of these. Really distracting from the composition themselves.
Yeah it makes them look CGI, or like... The other thing.
Actually it's funny that, as photography took photorealism down a peg (as a technically impressive aesthetic), LLM generated images are making the "perfectly smooth" look seem tacky, and like the opposite of an image that took lots of human effort (not that I'm doubting these, just talking about the style).
