I’m curious – what tools or apps do you use to create ultra-realistic stock photos? Looking to explore some new options and would love to hear your recommendations! I thought about this question after I found StockLibrary hidden in the all section of today's launches.

I use tools like Unsplash, Canva, and Pexels for high-quality stock photos, and Adobe Stock for more curated options. They offer a wide variety of ultra-realistic images!

I have tried a few third-party apps, but I feel that Midjourney is still doing the job best. A good prompt In combination with the url to an existing photo is almost always a winner at first shot.

I have used mostly Midjourney and I was always surprised by the results. There are several websites from where you can get a good prompt in a style similar to what you are looking for.

@tiberiu_arva Do you have any recommendation for a site that can write good prompts or I can simply use the GPT to write prompts?

I've used Midjourney a bit and the results are impressive. The key seems to be crafting a detailed prompt with the visual elements you want. Stock photo sites work well as a starting point. Curious what other AI image gen tools people are finding success with for realistic photos?

Midjourney has been great for me too. DALL-E 2 and Stable Diffusion through DreamStudio are also solid options. The key is crafting a really detailed prompt to get the look you want. I also find that providing a reference image helps a ton in getting ultra-realistic results on the first try. There are some good prompt engineering guides out there to level up your AI image generation skills.

Yeah Midjourney is great for realistic photos. I also like playing around with Stable Diffusion - the img2img mode where you upload a photo and it transforms it based on your prompt is super fun and can give really cool results. Takes some experimentation but once you get the hang of prompting it's a blast.
