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!

Nicely done!

I can't believe the length of maria sharapova's legs and that frame really illustrates it!

How did you get the long lens in there?

Very nice. Look how flat the ball is on Federer's racquet. D800 with 70-200/2.8, interesting, how heavily are these cropped? I'm guessing a lot, based on the fairly deep DOF even though you were at 200mm f/2.8.

Thanks. These are heavily cropped but having so many pixels to work with helped. I needed to keep the shutter speed very high to help avoid very heavy motion blur.
