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!

Ah Gees...
The Daff's color is brilliant! However, it's foliage blade cuts right through that color like a knife. A good inaugural shot, nonetheless.

I see your signature, but which one is the new lens
The bokeh of the lens is very pleasing... composition is not so good on this shot.

New toys are fun to have, happy shooting Jtheffy ... Skippy

Thanks for the CC! The telephoto lens is the new one - the standard was my kit lens.

As for the comp - what else is bad other than the blade in front of the flower?
