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!

Hey all, thanks for the votes! I've been consistently scoring pretty low on the challenges, so this feels like quite the break!
I found the lovely leaf by the school busstop on the first day of the year that was cold enough for the frost to linger for a few minutes past sunrise. Which just happened to be on a day within the challenge about ice....think I got lucky with this one! The blueish background behind the leaf is the frosted trunk of my beat-up old VW Jetta. It was the simplest thing. I'm a big fan of the idea of finding beauty in your immediate world like this.......

And a here's a big dose of well-wishing for the holiday going out to all of us, lurkers, posters, commentators, and voters alike. We've made this forum a very good thing indeed.
