So after the tidal wave of AI features and showcases at Adobe Max and all the design influencers have been going on about how great the new features are.

I've gone and tried to implement them and see how useful they are for work.

What's the point of software if all the features use credits to implement?

All these AI rollouts in Adobe Max 2025 makes me feel like Adobe doesnt realize there's joy in the craft of making things.

Sure you can generate something but did you actually make it? Can you really say it's yours? Can you really adjust it to your needs? Does any of this fill your creative needs?

Is anyone else getting the vibe all these Adobe AI tools are aiming to cut the designer out of the equation and selling AI creative platform subscriptions to a wider market?

...last 25 minutes of Adobe Max keynote we are covering the actual programs ...and surprise it's all Ai generation still 😖.

Adobe Max 2025 so far, disappointing.

Anyone else not overly impressed with all the focus yet again on AI features for Adobe Max?

The photos might not turn out but it was fun playing around with the camera in the snow.

Bird photography peeps!
I've been thinking about upgrading my 70-300mm + 1.4x teleconvertor lens to a 150-600mm lens. Is this the right move?
I shoot in the Fujifilm system with an X-T4.

I took some time this weekend to escape into nature and enjoy its beauty while the world continues spiraling into madness.

Any fellow designers know if any great inspiration resources on web form design, sign up process, web tools and web applications?

In 2025 I'm hoping to get out more in all weather conditions. Some of my favorite photos and photo experiences have involved trekking out in adverse weather conditions.
