Realistic media, grouped by subject

The rest of the catalogue is organised by format, which answers “I need a WebP” and not “I need a photograph of someone at work”. These 918 files are the same library sorted the other way: by what the picture is of.

Every plate here is AI-generated and depicts no real person, place or event. Each of the 153 subjects ships as a lossless PNG reference, four JPEG quality grades and a WebP, so the reference is the answer the compressed copies are measured against rather than just another file.

People

Faces and bodies: workers on the job, owners in their own premises, studio head shots and people mid-movement.

People at work

Synthetic photographs of people doing a job, across trades, kitchens, shops and offices.

Documents and paperwork

Invoices, receipts, ledgers, menus and delivery notes photographed on real desks and counters, plus a few general scenes.
