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!

It was such a beautiful day that I had to get out to shoot some images.


Nikon D3s - Nikon 70-200 vII - Nikon 2x vIII (It still amazes me how dog-on sharp this lens/TC combo is)

I've always maintained that if you have great subjects to shoot, even a hack like me can do a decent job

Thanks for looking Tom!

Hi Mary!

He does have great eyes. I've got several shots of him, and he's a good model. Several different facial expressions.

Thanks for looking!
