I suppose as a band aid solution for the sunroof you could have the roof wrapped in the body color, an other color or even a funky design. Also perhaps a hybrid would also fulfill the authors needs? I do sympathize with the opinion that mos

I am (still) not a proponent for AI, however I hope AI might do to programming what the camera did to painting, and I hope that will be a good thing. What we understand as painting today is very different then what painting meant pre-camera

Sure but most day to day professional photos are not shot because the subject is so interesting or the composition is so intriguing. They are shot to accompany a flyer, sell a product or to give a grandchild picture to their grandparents, o
