Waiatarau, Pou Whenua by Lenard Phillips and Te Aroha Witika (Ngāti Whātua). It is named Waiatarau, on the Beaumont Street side of Victoria Park. More details in alt txt.

#Photography #Aotearoa #Kikorangi
3:4, #Monochrome, Portrait: A #blackandwhite shot of a pou whenua (landmark post) shown full-length, facing slightly left; deep incised spirals and stylized facial features emphasize texture and shadow; pedestal has geometric carvings while the background remains soft and out of focus, showing the Auckland sky tower and tree silhouettes that place the Pou next to Victoria Park. The Pou was carved by Lenard Phillips and Te Aroha Witika (Ngāti Whātua). It is named Waiatarau which acknowledges the history of the stream that ran through the site and its significance to Ngāti Whātua as a source of kai (food).

#photography #caisdosodre
Monochrome, portrait orientation. An alleyway, uphill, featuring typical lisbon floor stone, tile and stone textured buildings with multiple tiny apartment style french doors and balconies. A solitary subject walks uphill away from camera, holding a solitary shopping bag and an open umbrella. His weary walk was my weary walk.

#Feb26Challenge Feb 4: Almost Smiling
Half a Sentence, Unspoken
Some expressions finish themselves in silence.
#MinimalPortrait #IntimateFrame #QuietIntensity #MonochromeMood #GenAI #SynthArt #AIart #aiartist #aiartcommunity #GenerativeArt #AIchallenge #BuilderofNightmares
A tightly cropped, monochrome portrait shows only part of a woman’s face and upper shoulder, filling the frame with texture and restraint. The composition cuts diagonally across her features, revealing one eye partially obscured by loose strands of dark hair, the curve of her cheek, and the soft line of her lips. The grayscale tones are smooth and muted, emphasizing skin texture, shadow, and subtle gradations of light rather than contrast. Her lips are gently closed, neither smiling nor tense, carrying a quiet neutrality that suggests thought held back rather than expressed. The visible eye looks slightly off-frame, unfocused and inward, as if attention has turned away from the room and toward something private. Fine hairs fall naturally across her face, breaking the clean lines and adding a sense of immediacy and realism. Her shoulder enters the frame at the lower edge, bare except for a thin, dark strap with a softly frayed edge. Light falls across the shoulder and collarbone, creating a smooth highlight that contrasts with the darker background. The background itself is plain and softly graded, free of detail, allowing the viewer’s attention to remain on expression, texture, and proximity. The overall atmosphere is intimate and restrained, evoking a moment caught between thought and speech. The image feels unfinished by design, inviting the viewer to linger in what is withheld rather than what is revealed.

#AIFebArt2026 Feb 2: Sphere
Inside the Quiet Sphere
She sits where the world curves inward and listens before answering.
#DreamlikePortrait #SoftSurrealism #IntrospectiveMood #VisualStillness #GenAI #SynthArt #AIart #aiartist #aiartcommunity #GenerativeArt #AIchallenge #BuilderofNightmares
A softly stylized, monochrome portrait shows a young woman seated cross-legged within a translucent, bubble-like enclosure that curves around her body. The spherical distortion subtly bends the background, creating a sense of separation between her and the surrounding space. The overall tone is warm and sepia-leaning, lending the image a timeless, almost memory-like quality. She wears a long-sleeved, dark knit top that fits closely, paired with loose, light-colored trousers that gather naturally at the knees and ankles. Her posture is relaxed yet intentional, with one hand resting near her ankle and the other draped casually across her leg. A simple ring is visible on one finger, catching a soft highlight. Her clothing appears comfortable and unadorned, emphasizing texture over decoration. Her hair falls in loose, natural curls around her face and shoulders, slightly tousled, framing her features without precision. She tilts her head gently upward and to the side, her gaze directed just past the viewer rather than directly at them. Her expression is calm and reflective, lips slightly parted, suggesting thought rather than performance. Beyond the curved boundary of the sphere, the background is softly blurred, hinting at an interior space with framed artwork and indistinct forms. The bubble effect creates a feeling of quiet isolation, as if she exists in a paused moment, protected from noise and urgency. The atmosphere is contemplative and intimate, emphasizing stillness, self-containment, and gentle emotional distance.

Soft Focus, Held Gaze
Elegance doesn’t announce itself. It waits to be noticed.
#TimelessPortrait #QuietElegance #ClassicMood #CinematicSoftness #GenAI #SynthArt #AIart #aiartist #aiartcommunity #GenerativeArt #AIchallenge #BuilderofNightmares
A softly lit, monochrome portrait captures a young woman from the chest up, positioned slightly off-center and turned gently toward the camera. Her expression is calm and self-possessed, with a subtle, knowing smile that rests naturally at the corners of her mouth. Her eyes meet the viewer directly, steady and relaxed, conveying warmth without performance. Her dark hair is styled in a loose updo, with wisps framing her face and a light fringe brushing her forehead. The texture of her hair appears soft and natural, complementing the understated tone of the image. Delicate earrings catch a faint highlight near her jawline, adding a quiet accent without drawing attention away from her face. She wears a sleeveless black dress with intricate lace detailing. A high lace collar encircles her neck, while layered ruffles and sheer fabric shape the bodice, creating depth through texture rather than contrast. Thin straps rest lightly on her shoulders. The lace appears fine and carefully patterned, lending the image a sense of refinement and intimacy. The background is softly blurred, suggesting an indoor setting with framed artwork and indistinct figures beyond her. This shallow focus isolates her presence, allowing the viewer to linger on expression, fabric, and posture. The overall atmosphere feels timeless and composed, as if the moment exists outside of any specific era, suspended in quiet confidence.

i present, miss violetta oliveros............
a miqote woman from the hit massively multiplayer online role playing game final fantasy 14, blissful and wide with grin as she peers towards an unseen subject over and behind the camera. love is pure and plain abuzz across and through her, standing afore great buildings of smooth white brick and stone. here she is at home, its warmth brushed against her skin and into the film itself a miqo'te woman from the hit massively multiplayer role playing game final fantasy 14, holding a custom leica m6 film camera with a brown leather grip, with a summilux 50mm f/1.4 lens to round off the kit. she overlooks an unseen vista with a warm smile of wonder peeling her lips apart just so to expose her teeth as she drinks in the view. behind her, the rolling hills of urqopacha stretch out and upward, clouds cloaking the base of the sacred summit worqor zormor which stands tall beside even the endless skies. this is a memory of serenity, one the woman wishes to enshrine in film. one which, we too, shall preserve within the same medium a portrait of a miqote woman from the hit massively multiplayer role playing game final fantasy 14. she offers a gentle, intimate grin while striking a fancy yet silly pose for the one behind the camera. an autumn morning sun perfectly blooms just over her shoulder within the frame, distilled and filtered through a web of rusted leaves. the little imperfections give the image a sense of urgency in capturing the moment exactly as it is intended to be cherished by the one in the woman's company a miqote woman from the hit massively multiplayer role playing game final fantasy 14 performing an unheard piece on a violin. a dramatic light caresses the curves of her instrument, cheek, and features, all else sunk deep in an impenetrable void. adding to the dreaminess of the presentation, the image is produced in monochrome, with heavy grain and stain. what could she be playing? these notes we were never meant to hear. we see her, violetta, in mute, as though the sound itself was swallowed by the darkness. may the moon keep her from disappearing altogether
