Not exactly related, but it drives me a little crazy when the arc of light in a crescent moon in art goes past the midpoint of the moon. That's not how light on a sphere works!

Mildly terrifying for me - there's something off-putting about having a usually distant thing in the sky be much closer to the ground and becoming visually much larger as a result.

But besides that the colours of the scenery is nice

If this isn't AI, what bridge is it?

*I know it's a massive If

Doesn't seem like AI? I found a post with this image on Instagram from 3 years ago. Image generation 3 years ago definitely wasn't this good.

It looks like it may have been intended to be more symmetrical except one of the supports of the right side failed, causing it to droop. Even if true, it would have still looked sloppy.

Actually, looking at it more closely now, especially the bend near the left side, it looks like it may just be held up with bailing wire tied around the spindles.
