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!

Snow covered Mountains in the Desert
Last month we had snow fall as low as the desert areas.
I hope the sky isn't too purple?
I wanted to keep the sky but it seemed to take away from the clouds. These are two different shots; each one in a black and white and color. Your C&C would help a lot (aside from the stick in the middle) .
I have others to process.
I know some of you are tired of snow but when our triple digits get here I'll be looking at snowy scenes a lot!

Great photos. But I think the images are a little over sharpened.

Thank you for the comment. I did back off sharpening a bit. It seems noticeable in the smaller image but when I look at the larger file it does not seem overly sharp at all. When I softened the large file it was too much....hmmmm

The mountains are just north of Phoenix. It's hard to recognize the desert area when its covered in snow! We'll be wishing for snow in another month - when we loose our bragging rights!
