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!

Apple Preview:

Apple Automator:

The above methods are good for general reduction or perhaps enlargement if you are after a "standard" result... For a very different result when enlarging one can use SmillaEnlarger (similar to some expensive commercial enlargement software):

Edit - more options:

...thanks for the info, guys. Lightroom I've owned since it came out and it's not the ideal for what I want...neither is Preview (although it works well)...I ended-up getting an app called "Pixillion" which fits the bill (although it cost a few bux); it's fast and just a few clicks. It does the same job as Pixresizer on the PC side, only not free!
