Tutorials

Ever find yourself wondering just how someone managed to create an image using different effects?

Here are three simple tutorials we hope will encourage you to try something new.

The Hot Seat

A lifelong interest in landscape photography has led Eyal Oren to make a study of his adopted hometown of Marblehead, MA. As you can see, his dedication is paying off!

Africa!

Dgrinners Harryb, Pathfinder, and others joined Andy Williams and Marc Muench on Safari in East Africa recently. Here are some awesome threads to check out!

Huh Shooting for magazine cover..first time..tips needed!
I got asked to shoot the cover for a local Women's magazine, I have had one photo in it before, but now I am shooting the COVER... any ideas, hints, tips, suggestions are greatly appreciated, as I have never done anything like this before. I Just got a new camera over 1 year ago, so I'm not All that familiar with shooting in manual mode, but would like to learn more...

I have to take the photo sometime in Feb. for the April issue of Queen of the Castle magazine...http://cvqueenofthecastle.com/default.aspx (< There is a link to the magazine)

I have a Nikon D40 with the stock lens it came w/ 18-55mm.

Any suggestions for ISO setting, white balance setting, shooting in manual mode (or other), and anything else.

Thanks so much everyone!

I'm so excited for this opportunity! I will make sure to post the cover of the magazine once it comes out!!!

-Kel
