Laurent Baheux is a French photographer celebrated for his striking black and white wildlife photography. Born in Poitiers in 1970, Baheux developed a passion for nature and wildlife at a young age, a passion that would later define his career and artistic vision. His work is distinguished by its focus on the natural beauty and majesty of animals, particularly those of Africa. Baheux's photography captures the essence of his subjects with a profound depth and sensitivity, often highlighting the emotional life and individuality of each animal. His images are characterized by their dramatic contrasts, intricate textures, and a powerful sense of intimacy and contemplation, inviting viewers to reflect on the relationship between humans and the natural world. Let's see how Midjourney treats the photographic style, when the main subject of the photographer is animals. Well, as we can see, most of our prompts are quite generic in the interpretation of the subjects, but the photographic style (black and white, with close-up portraits, sharp shadows etc.) remains very consistent. However, whenever possible, the pictures are connected with the wildlife and with Africa - check out bioarchitecture and Chernobog, for example. Also, one of our favorite treatments of Francis D. of all times! Version 6 is definitely much better with implementing certain styles to photographic referencies. It's hard for us to calculate the Midlibrary score, it's 9/9 if we just judge the style consistency. But is it really a powerstyle? What do you think?
All samples are produced by Midlibrary team using Midjourney AI (if not stated otherwise). Naturally, they are not representative of real artists' works/real-world prototypes.

Midlibrary Benchmark is a test comprised of nine standardized prompts designed to test how Midjounrey styles (AKA artistic styles, reference styles, or style modifiers) work with different subjects in a variety of contexts.
Depending on how a style manifested itself with each prompt, we add 1, 0.5, or 0 points to its total score.
The prompt produced a generic results with no unique style features: this test adds nothing (0) to the overall score.
This generation inherits more elements from the referenced style, but they are scarce and dilluted. Which adds 0.5 to the style's score.
In this case, the Midjourney style showed a distinct and unique result, well aligned with the style's real-world prototype. A firm 1.
