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!

Color Challenge
So I was linked this today by a friend, and I found it a very good challenge for my vision. I personally have never known exactly how accurate my color vision is and because of that I've second guessed myself in the past with color balance a bit too much. So, naturally I wanted to try it out (and I actually felt pressured since its very important to me, lol) It took a bit of visual mind crunching, but I ended up getting a perfect 0. Now I can stop second guessing myself as much with colors I think I am seeing in my photos.



Try it and you can see if something other than your monitor is causing color issues! No need to do it quickly either, since editing takes time anyway.

interesting concept! I have moved this to the big picture board as it is more for the community as a whole then just the challenge board.

I made a 12.

I guess if 'perfect' is 0 and really, really bad is 99 then 12 isn't 'too' awful bad. It helps explain why I don't always see the subtle color differences though.
