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!

Sexual opportunism in the mantis world
This male (the little guy) didn't seem to like the idea of what happens in the mantis mating ceremony!

So he waited until she (the big one) had her mouth full.

A clever male !- lovely capture. Suprised they don't present the female with a snack as some other insectivorus insects do.
