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!

I almost bought 512Gb SSDs for this machine. But I really want at least 1Tb in Bay 1 & 2, raided. So I'm hopeful in <12 months to upgrade to that. Right now the SSD prices are crazy. But I love how fast my Macbook Air is at everything.

Just go the new 2011 Mac Min - 2.5 GHz i5 dual core with stock 4 gigs RAM and 5400rpm drive.
Retouch pro:
8 bit - 19 sec
16 bit - 23 sec

FM photo seems to be missing/broken so can't run that test.
Smoking for a mini!! Going to upgrade RAM to 8 gigs in a few days. Have read that SSD doesn't help LR at all...

Broken links
The OP has a broken link in his post...making it unusable. Time to retire this sticky. It's 5 years old...

Fred's link doesn't work.

Thanks, Ed
