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!

Chinese + Polish = Stunning Lianne
Liannes' rare combination of Chinese/Polish ancestry gives her a really unique (and triple gorgeous) look. We threw together a shoot on about 6 hours notice and took advantage of some gorgeous evening light.

Still processing her images but you can click the first image for the start of her gallery.

As composition and lighting goes, 3 & 5 are my favorite -- the tighter look works better in my opinion. But the poses are a little forced for my taste (plus the shots are a bit noisy -- looks like you were pushing the end of daylight and had to open up the shadows behind her using PS).

Love the lighting and pose on #6. Great job and the headshot works really well. On 1 & 2 I feel the brightness of the rocks overpower her but then not in #3..

Thanks Zoomer.

It still amazes me how I've been able to use all those studio lessons you and the others taught me this past winter and apply them to outdoors with just Mr. Sol.

I'm probably getting arrogant, but I think my outdoor stuff has improved measurably from even last summer and I owe that to my regular commenters here.

Of course, I'll still argue with everyone on backgrounds, etc.
