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!

Just back in commission after returning from a week in the SF Bay Area. This forum is just what the Dr. ordered. Great idea. Thanks.

Here's one from me before you move on to the next assignment.

Lines, triangles, shapes, and symmetry from the SF Bay Bridge:

I know these are late but ....
I was sailing when I got these and couldn't get them uploaded until today. No post processing on any of these, other than default CR2->JPG conversion by Bridge. Oh yeah, the last one I touched up with the clone tool to remove some spots from the sky.

Some circles:





Another display of triangles:

You may wanna check "how to post a pic", your images are not showing.
It's also a part of a bigger "helper" post "How to do everything at Dgring and still keep your dignity"
Once you figure out picture posting, go ahead and modify your original thread :-)
Glad you've joined us!

[EDIT: I can see them now!]

I would suggest to catch up on the current subject first (Field), it will be more more fun for everybody. Besides, it will be more helpful for you, too...

My favorite is the last one. Kinda abstract.. Clockwork is bit bland to my personal taste...
