The Waystation

The banner visuals at the top of each page were generated using artificial intelligence. As a former professional photographer, I make a point of respecting the work of other creators and avoiding any use of images without permission. On top of that, for some articles it was hard to find visuals that were a real fit, which naturally led me to turn to AI in order to create illustrations that stay consistent with the content.
