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!

Nice series Randy - agree with Rags about the low-key people-presence, well, except for #8 - OMG! ......I'm no prude, but just the concept of such a thing makes me wonder about the evolutionary progress/digress of some humans.
WTF? Did someone show-up at a staff meeting and say "hey, I've got a great idea for that empty wall space out by the doors"?
Besides, what's the sculptors analog of Photoshop, 'cause those bronze butts need some smoothing.

Eric, I can tell you that the short time we were at this particular location, we witnessed, well...

Let's just say that those bronze butts get hand polished quite often

Thanks for your comments!

Hey Mary,

It was quite peaceful there, strange enough

#8 - Teresa wouldn't let me go inside to see if the "other" side of the sculpture was in there
