For the photobook, I am very happy with the way it fits the theme of Simple and Complex, as it contains both complex themes of artificial intelligence, a woodland environment, the technical nature of photography as a medium, as well as the more simple themes to contrast with it, such as an object photograph, as well as how AI software can simplify creating an image. I think the image on the front/back cover represents this well, as the image started as a fairly complex composition in the woodland, and I edited it to be made up of simpler shapes and slightly more limited colour. I am happy with the way the book links in with my previous book in that the image on the front cover is designed in a similar way, even the text is in a similar position.

What went well:

Due to the symmetrical nature of my sequencing, many of the pages in the photobook have a similar aesthetic and presentation, this idea of a repeating page layout works nicely in making sure each image works well with one another. I think my inclusion of my AI generated images was successful, as I was able to put equal focus on those and the image they were referencing during their creation (the only page where it only has AI images uses images based off of the image from the cover of the book).

How I can improve:

Due to the limitations of the AI software, the AI generated images were at a very low resolution, which means that they may not be in the best quality once I have the book printed (however that blurriness may add to their inorganic appearance). The title of the book (Ancient Woodland Modern Software) was a fairly rushed name, however it does fit in with the themes of the project.
