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!

I hope folks don't mind a multi-sport thread!
Here are some favorites from the last month of shooting mountain bikes, surfing, MX, and Tri. I might hit some CX tomorrow.

Oregon Enduro Series, Sisters, Oregon.
Sadly, the Pole Creek Fire, still only 50% contained, has likely burned this entire area of the Metolios-Windigo trail.

BTS shot for #1

The light that I'm adding here is minimal but makes a huge difference in side-by-side comparisons, IMHO.
This is two speedlights shooting high-speed sync. One might have sufficed but this gives me a little more recycle and less strain on the batteries.

I was going to say the same thing!

Looks like you are having a blast.
Really like the thought process in #2 ... my only suggesting would be to crop a little tighter but still keep that wonderful perspective.
