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

Holy Crap!!! I can't believe I didn't notice that. Sorry, Sean, completely missed it. Hang on, I gotta go huff around and be mad for a little bit.

**For the record, you wouldn't believe how many hoops I had to jump through to set up this shot - Really disappointed in myself.

If it's any consolation, I was equally disappointed in having to disqualify it. I hate to disqualify anyone.

Thanks, Paul. I'd thought about starting a thread for critique on it since it will no longer be in the gallery, but wanted to wait until voting is mostly done.

For the record, your 128 shot I find mesmerizing.
