The man who’s been to Earth five times /August 24, 2013 by Richard

Probably the coolest quote ever “I've been to space four times. And impressed the aliens by telling them I'd been to earth five times!” by astronaut Mark Kelly.

Yes the dud traveled with space missions: STS-108, STS-121, STS-134, STS-124 and he use to twitter daily from out of space.

Commander Kelly has provided us with fabulous pictures of the blue planet for years.

Thanks Mark

As a photographer navigating the AI era, we are confronted with numerous fresh opportunities and, at the same time, potential challenges. The question looms: can we not only survive but also harness the full potential of these new possibilities, especially with the advent of mega digital cameras in this emerging photographic age?

Certainly, AI tools have enabled enthusiastic individuals to craft a diverse array of captivating artificial images. However, the question arises: can these creators truly be called photographers? In my view, the distinction lies in the ownership of photographs and the associated intellectual property rights. This consideration has made me considerably more discerning in terms of what and how I choose to publish my images.
