      Exactly what I was thinking. She spent a looooong time putting makeup on just to go falconing. Falconring. Falconrying. Falconnerying. Playing with birds.

      I don’t think it’s fake. There are a lot of small details that I don’t think AI would get right. All the equipment is 100% correct. Hood, anklets, leash, jesses, swivels, and glove look good. She is holding her right arm up with her left because eagles are heckin heavy. She’s obviously not going out hunting but I don’t think it’s fake.

      In fact, I have a photo along the same vein:

      I found this FB post on Aug 19, 2016. This may or may not be the original but this is pre-AI, right?

      The flowers behind her look fake. I’ve seen generated images with a very similar flower design.

      I think the falcon is perched on her upheld right fist, and her left arm is tucked into her vest/bib

      Her right arm is pretty clearly visible tho. She’s got a long orange sleeve that goes into the brown glove the falcon is standing on.

      It is not. This image is from like 7 years ago. I’m just sharing the best content I had from my Reddit days.

      “falconry, also called hawking, the sport of employing falcons, true hawks, and sometimes eagles or buzzards in hunting game.”

    Couldn’t find a source for this image online (original) to tell whether it is AI or real…but this is some really cool shit for sure

    I did find a similar(but less stylized) image on a blog using the wayback machine…this is definitely real and she is definitely wearing a stylish outfit and some makeup

    This photo is mesmerising and intimidating all at the same time.

    Does anyone know of a high res version or the source of it?
