Building a Photo Tagging System with CLIP

My photography gallery has 500+ images spanning about a decade of shooting. Landscapes, urban decay, wildlife, portraits, and a surprising number of cat photos. For years they sat in a flat grid with no way to filter or browse by subject, which meant anyone visiting the page was essentially scrolling through a shuffled pile of everything I've ever pointed a camera at. I wanted category tags, but manually tagging 500+ photos sounded like a weekend I'd never get back and would inevitably lead to inconsistency anyway (is a snowy field "landscape" or "winter"? Both? Do I care enough to decide 500+ times?).

So I did what any self-respecting nerd would do: I made the computer do it.
