I took this picture in Long Beach at the Veterans Memorial Beach on April 1, 2026 I took this picture when I was walking on the pier and I took it with my iPhone 17 Pro. My two favorite things are going on walks and going to the beach. I live in California by all the beaches off of PCH so on my days off, I usually go walk by one of the beaches. You can see my photo of the color of the water, the sand in the housing. It was a beautiful warm day that day, and the clouds are Very clear to see with the sky.
I got this picture on a free stock picture website called Pexels. https://images.pexels.com/photos/29120261/pexels-photo-29120261.jpeg?cs=srgb&dl=pexels-danielle-guinea-2030180846-29120261.jpg&fm=jpg&_gl=1*wvnhc0*_ga*OTcwMjEzMTY1LjE3NzUzMzM2OTE.*_ga_8JE65Q40S6*czE3NzUzMzM2OTAkbzEkZzEkdDE3NzUzMzM3NDEkajkkbDAkaDA.
You can see it’s kind of similar to my picture with It being the beach with the water, but it’s not as clear as my photo because it’s coming from a different website. I like how it has the same kind of colors as my picture. The picture is definitely pixelated where mine was done with my iPhone.
I got this picture off ChatGPT off my phone. I told it to give me a picture of the beach and this is what it created. I feel like AI pictures look totally fake and unrealistic or they look picture perfect but once you zoom in, it’s very pixelated. All these pictures are very similar, but they’re not as clear. I definitely prefer actually taking the photo of them finding it online or asking ChatGPT.
