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!

A flick of it's wings...
Just managed to trigger the shutter I'd imagine in the instant before this fly took off from the leaf it was sat on tonight - you can just see some movement beginning on its wings, but it still hasn't raised its back feet up yet in the take-off (flies always take off backwards).

So this is the instant that the process began of flying away... starts with a flick of the wings.
