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.

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

That’s what stuck out to you, not her face looking like a Sim?

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.”
