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!

Thanks for the comments, John. There is a bit of everything there at Commencement time. All this claims to be is four things that caught my eye. You might be amazed by today's Harvard, by the way, which is not, to steal from Buick, 'your father's Harvard.' Clise to 70 percent of the student body receives financial aid - scholarships, NOT loans, with those with family net incomes under $65k paying $0, and those with incomes up to $155k paying up to 10% of income, or $15,500. Which is to say that a Harvard education is available to anyone who an get in; money is no longer a barrier. Yes, there are still a lot of 'legacies,' but the student body today is quite diverse in every way other than in terms of ability.

But that aside. After all the back and forth, I've come to the conclusion that number...Three is the keeper.

You can't say I didn't warn you. I'm sure you two will be very happy together.
