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 take it it's a top of the car's dashboard?

Antonio- is it the dash of a car- the rt side of the picture being above the glove compartment and housing the passenger airbag?

OOPS- Nikolai beat me!

Shima,
I guess #2 is a chandelier (hanukka one?) and #4 is a pendulum load.
I have no clue what the rest of the pictures show...
Nice entries:-)

Fabulous :) That pleases me greatly that I stumped you on the majority.

A pendulum in what is the real question... do you know? If not I'll post the full pic...

And yeah good going on the 2nd, I really liked the angle of the shot, hehe:


Any more guesses anyone on the others?

#4 is the pendalum for a grandfather clock. Without more context, it could be for a grandmother clock or possibly an even smaller clock but I prefer the size and style of a grandfather clock so that's my guess.

#1 looks like a bunch of handles but I can't make out what's on them due to the coloring (looks like the over-blue effect I've gotten on accident in the past when I had a really bad white balance set).

Number one are electrical cables all around a cylinder for transportation.
They are dirty because they are outside and have been dragged in the sand.

The shadow is from the photographer.

But they have a strange colours though ...


What is it ?
Good picture. Difficult to guess

They are Ramune bottles, very unique in that you have to tip them towards the two grooves to drink, otherwise that marble looking piece inside will block the opening and the soda will not come out. :)

It's a decent size clock that hangs on our wall, not sure exactly what type of clock you call it, but I'll give it to you :)
