The rules

1. Only at the scale of towns and landscapes. Never a hill, a neighbourhood or a house: there, an edited image would tell an untruth.
2. Free source photos. Public domain, CC0 or CC BY, with author and link; or images generated from text, declared as such.
3. Geometry is not touched. Light, sky and season may change, and cars, signs and cables may be removed; buildings, piers, islands or bell towers are never added or removed.
4. The mark on the image. Every generated media item carries the «AI» mark and its line below.
5. Real material stays real. TriesteVillas films, 3D tours and listings are not retouched on this site.

ed-aeroporto	Portorož	Portorož (14158462764).jpg flightlog · CC BY 2.0	nano_banana_2 · Higgsfield 3185bfab-96ba-4fbe-9944-ae0673fe4c2b	Warmer morning light with a low sun from the left; clear sky with a few high clouds; legible lettering and logos removed. Where the model had written invented pseudo-letters, they were removed locally: the badge and a small plate on the fire engine's bonnet and three plates on the two vehicles in the hangar are filled with the background colour, and the two rows of marks on the wings of the yellow aircraft are blurred into a plain stripe. The yellow aircraft (shape, wings, propeller, landing gear), the other aircraft, the hangars, the two masts, the cypresses, the hillside and the ground markings are unchanged.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

The trees are not bent by wind, because they are not in the original either: nothing was reshaped. The pasture, the pines, the track, the stones and the outline of the mountains are unchanged.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

All people removed (the four walkers in the foreground, the passers-by and the people sitting at the far end of the path), as well as a cargo bike and a scooter at the far end, a road sign, the shadow of a street lamp on the asphalt and the large «TITO» lettering on the hill behind Koper; an e-bike with a child seat added (an object, not part of the place). The model had redrawn the Koper waterfront: the port (cranes, ships, warehouses), the tall block and the houses to the left of the red tower block, the houses of the old town, the Taverna with its arcade, the bell tower with its clock, the top of the red tower block and the elevated ramp were brought back from the original photograph by local compositing, aligned and colour-matched; the lettering on the side of a ship is blurred. Where the model had turned the distant passers-by into posts and dark silhouettes, the background was rebuilt locally. The path, the breakwater, the coastline and the hills are unchanged.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

A person on a bicycle deep inside the tunnel remains, tiny and unrecognisable. The portal, the arch, the retaining walls, the bollards, the path and the vegetation are unchanged.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

The two flags on the castle, which the model had redrawn wrongly (the Slovenian flag without its blue band), were restored from the original photograph by local compositing; a café sign that the model had turned into invented lettering is blurred until illegible. The castle, the tower, the houses, the windows, the footbridge and the embankments are unchanged.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

Two tiny, unrecognisable people on the waterfront path remain. The old town, the bell tower, the churches, the breakwater, the piers, the cliff, the coastline and the hills are unchanged.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

The houses, the castle, the walls, the bell tower, the gardens, the roads, the fields and the outline of the hills are unchanged; the fine detail of the distant roofs is redrawn by the model without moving anything.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

The two viaducts and the number of their piers, the roads, the hairpins, the hills, the mountain and its summit, the distant coast, the woods and the rock in the foreground are unchanged.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)
lente-koper	Koper	Koper - Zvonik (Mestni stolp) (53634621304).jpg Fred Romero from Paris, France · CC BY 4.0	nano_banana_2 · Higgsfield 8fed9a2f-d469-4295-9c05-9cba671f0658	The cloudy afternoon sky is replaced by a clear early-morning sky, with low warm light on the facades. Removed: the people in the square (the paving was continued by the model), the shop sign under the arcades and a lattice antenna on a roof behind the pink building; two information boards at the foot of the bell tower, on which the model had invented lettering, were covered locally with the adjacent stone. The lower part of the Praetorian Palace staircase, hidden by people in the original, was reconstructed by the model from the visible trace. Unchanged: bell tower, cathedral, pink building, Praetorian Palace with its windows, arches and battlements, and the low-angle perspective (verticals were not straightened).	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)
lente-lipica	Lipica	Lipica2.jpg Žiga (Wikimedia Commons, opera propria, PD-self) · Public domain	nano_banana_2 · Higgsfield a2573ec3-cf0b-4a33-9f2a-35f10a308d1b	The full daylight of the original becomes soft morning light, with a veil of mist between the trunks in the distance and a hazy sun behind on the left; colours are softer. In the original, between the legs of the large white horse at centre right, a small partly hidden figure can be seen, almost certainly a person: the model had replaced it with an invented head of a grey horse grazing; the head was covered locally with the background grass, and the figure is gone. The oaks, the dry grass and the arrangement of the herd are those of the original; the model did, however, redraw the horses, which are small and soft in the original, and at full size the detail of legs and heads is the model's. No fences or signs, as in the original.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)
lente-piran	Piran	A view of Piran form the old city walls (8134812747).jpg Boštjan Rudolf from Koper, Slovenia · CC BY 2.0	nano_banana_2 · Higgsfield 6d6cfe8d-bf50-4c90-82f5-43ffc0ac9b52	The grey, windy day of the original, with a choppy sea, becomes blue hour: blue sky with a few clouds, calm sea, street lamps and some windows lit in the town and around Tartini Square, St George's bell tower floodlit. On the bell tower the model had drawn a clock face that is not visible in the original: it was covered locally with masonry from the same tower. Roofs, town hall, St George's church with the baptistery, the tip, the walls and the trees are unchanged; the people were already distant and unrecognisable.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)
lente-socerb	—	Socerb (8623325580).jpg Daniel Thornton · CC BY 2.0	nano_banana_2 · Higgsfield e0816f37-57b9-4783-b518-ba84a0c5cc6f	The milky haze of the original, which almost erased the coast, has been removed: clear post-bora air, cool morning light from the left, blue sky with a few high clouds, blue-green sea. The outline of the hills, the coast, the Muggia peninsula and the ports is that of the original; small distant details (ships, cranes, buildings), barely discernible in the original, were made legible by the model and should not be read as a record at that distance. No town, pier or building was added or removed.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

The Italian coast and the Alps on the horizon, already visible in the original, are sharper: the outline is that of the original, the fine details at that distance are the model's. The shell-covered rocks, the wet sand, the waves and the horizon line remain; nothing was added. Ankaran's pine wood does not appear: it is not in the source photograph.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

The wall and its fluting, the rim with its pines, the small stone structure, the trees in the doline and the branches in the foreground are unchanged. No cave interiors.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)
luogo-izola	Izola	Izola, Slovenia, 20240502 1331 7626.jpg Jakub Hałun · CC BY 4.0	nano_banana_2 · Higgsfield 7ef1f67a-f43a-4399-bb82-84bbcbea1bbd	The cloudy day of the original becomes blue hour: blue sky with a few clouds, street lamps along the quay and some windows and restaurants lit, calm water with reflections instead of choppy green water. The cars parked on the quay, the people, some road signs in front of the white building and the legible shop signs were removed; the temporary fence in front of the white building and the patches of peeling plaster on its façade were redrawn by the model. The model had altered other parts of the white classical building: the Lion of Saint Mark with the book in the pediment, the Slovenian, EU and Italian flags with their poles, the panel below the window, the sailing boat crossing the façade, the trunks of the pollarded palms and the street-lamp lantern were brought back from the original photograph by local compositing, aligned and colour-matched. Where the model had written invented pseudo-letters, the three road signs near the building (no entry, arrow, parking) were brought back from the photograph, and the shop signs, boards and small plates were blanked or blurred locally. The houses, the church and bell tower, the quay and the number and position of the boats are unchanged.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

The hotel lettering on the roof of the white building was removed; the model had invented other letters on the buildings behind, which were covered locally with nearby pixels (hillside and the building's own band). On the distant hills the model made pylons and buildings more legible than in the original, where they could barely be made out. Bell tower, old town, arcaded building, modern buildings, mast, crane, boats and the outline of the hills are unchanged.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

The white building in the background, barely glimpsed through the branches in the original, reads a little more clearly. The oaks (number and crowns), the outline of the pond, the hedge, the fence, the building and the branches at the top are unchanged.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

The model removed the sailing boats and a motorboat's wake from the sea and the people on the path up to St George's. Framing, horizon, the shape and length of the peninsula, the roofs, the town hall, Tartini Square, St George's church with the baptistery and the other bell towers are unchanged. A first attempt that lowered the horizon and shortened the peninsula was discarded.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)

The number, position and height of the masts, the breakwater, its light and the buoys are those of the original; the details of the hulls (biminis, fenders, decks), black in the original, were drawn by the model. A name the model had written on a hull was covered locally with the hull itself.

The model removed a container ship on the horizon. The cliff was not altered in shape, height or layering; the curve of the bay, the beach, the cypresses and the house on the plateau, the distant coast and the bushes in the foreground are unchanged.	5 October 2026 checked by Claude (verifica avversaria a occhio)
