If that isn't AI generated I will eat my left shoe.

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:

Ps, if any falconers are lurking in lenmyland join me at falconry.party

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