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!

Hahaha! If you titled it that way that would be a very controversial topic! Was the inclusion of the stone post intentional on your idea, Tony or was it coincidental? It looks kinda phallic to me considering the words on the poster below. Am I allowed to use that word here? Regardless, This is a good shot for me.

Hey Tony,

Looks as if you've been over to St. Augustine lately. The proximity of the trash receptacle to the guy and his message could be construed several ways.

Accused Shill.
He forgot "...photographers" on his list. Although perhaps that is covered under idolaters?

Jeez! You even recognize the trash receptacles on St George Street.

Interesting shot
A few hidden meanings. I'm not sure it you meant it that way, but I like the shot.

I took shots from several angles. Picked the one that included the
sign, the man, the trash can, and the bollard. Dunno what I might
have missed. The trash can sign and the bollard contribute some
meaning that I don't think the man intended to convey.
