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!

Union Pacific Ore Train from Moab
Union Pacific Ore Train from Moab, Utah. Two locomotives in front, two on the back. Just out of the Moab fault pass.

Len,

I liked this image when I first looked at it. The longer I look at it, the more I like it.

Good lead in
Good processing - Gives the train depth
Good composition

If I had to find a nit, it would be the lone pole on the right. Being the only (dominate) pole, it draws my eye to it, and away from the main subject.

Trains can look so alone out in the countryside. I can feel that loneliness in this shot. More from where it's coming from then where it may be heading too. Nice work.

Thanks everybody for your comments. I am going to "work" on that pole, I agree with you all regarding that. This train is carrying radio active ore from an ongoing clean-up near Moab.
