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 like the second one better, but would consider a portrait crop that loses the right side of the image. The colors and bg are quite different and effective.

Thanks everyone for the input. I meant to get out and try some more today but ended up taking the kids to a baseball game instead. I guess #3 will end up being my entry.

The focus seems a little off in #1. Maybe I need new glasses?

I like #3 with the little guy.

I like the tones, balance & DOF in #3 - the bug does draw me in.
