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!

Very nice shot of the rhododendrons on Roan. This is the first time in many years I've haven't been up there in early June to catch the show myself. Thanks for sharing.

Tom, Sorry to hear that. This was actually my first time to get to Roan during the rhododendron bloom. A fantastic place for sure!

I love the crispness of the foreground with the depth of the mountains, just beautiful.

Thank you! This is specifically a rhododendron garden where they grow nothing but rhododendron. In the non-garden areas, the rhododendron are certainly further between and more like what you'd expect.
