AccidentalRenaissance is for photos that look like Renaissance paintings.
This means that they look like Renaissance art in their composition, their coloring, their saturation, the angle of the scene, the types of settings, etc.
π Must be a photo. Not a meme, drawing, art, ai-generated or ai-enhanced image, screenshot, low-effort post, meta posts, video, or anything else but a photo.
π Must be SFW. No gore, porn, extreme violence, blood, corpses, or similarly disturbing content. Absolutely no pornography, even if it's "tasteful".
π Comments must be civil. No slurs of any kind or using words to insult, demean, harass, or abuse other individuals or groups.
π The Renaissance part (not the photo itself) must be accidental to the photograph. In other words, no photos of Renaissance fairs, people dressed in medieval/Renaissance clothes, etc.
π NO influencer selfies, professional photoshoots with watermarks, any type of OnlyFans-like content. We are not the place to work your side-hustle.
πΈ If you know who the photographer is, give them credit in the comment section. This is the only type of self-promotion we allow.
π©βπ¦― Alt-Text for vision-impaired users in the post body or in the comments is highly encouraged. Just pretend you are describing a photo to someone on the phone.

Was this description written by an AI bot? Was this post?
Re: the rules on the side: "Alt-Text for vision-impaired users in the post body or in the comments is highly encouraged. Just pretend you are describing a photo to someone on the phone."
Some instances have "alternate text" boxes that don't show up for everyone but allow screen readers to read it, but if not, just put it in the body. Or as a comment.
Alt-text is also a good way to train AI algorithms
It's alternate text for people with visual impairments/screen readers.
I wrote it.
Maybe itβs written for people with visual impairments.
It would be pretty impressive if an AI could create a description that is as accurate as that. Obviously the description isn't perfect but it's not bad either.
That could help a lot with accessibility if AI-enhanced screen readers could interpret images too.
Yeah, no /s, this would be a good use of AI.
It would actually be interesting to use the descriptions here as a prompt for AI to see what it comes up with and compare.

I did try but it's just too difficult for AI to accurately capture the emotional expressions of the athletes without further interference.
Hahaha, it is excellent, though, thanks!
