    Landscape or Portrait?

    Do you prefer horizontal or vertical images?

    In my short time generating landscape (horizontal) images, I find that I actually prefer them, but what about you?

    These are my anecdotal findings about these image orientations


    Landscape (Horizontal):

    • More atmospheric, more cinematic

    • Higher chance of including multiple people (may or may not be an issue based on model)

    • Generally more dynamic posing

      • i.e. Less basic standing/vertical posing due to limited vertical space

    • More "free feeling"/less cramped feeling

    Portrait (Vertical):

    • Higher chance of getting "multiple views" (depending on model)

    • Limited posing opportunity due to limited horizontal space

    • More generic

      • i.e. Most people use vertical image generation


    I've generated some images with the same settings, but differentiating between landscape and portrait

    Realistically, only the first 2 images can really be compared, and I should have generated more images. But this is what I have right now, so what do you think? Do you prefer landscape or portrait?
