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!

My first moon
Had to crop the heck out of it and fiddle with the curves. But I love the pic. Or at least the possibilities.

Addictive, isn't it?

Looks like you may have shot at a higher ISO than you need to. Remember, the moon is a sunlit object. Sunny-16 rule can be applied with a little tweaking.

I just flung up the camera on the way out to my car from work. The moon itself was probably 8-10% of the pic. It's a really really tight crop and some pretty extreme curve changes to darken the sky. ~ 5 pm.

iso 800, 300mm, 5.6, 1/500th

But yes. Gods yes it's addictive.
