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!

So I have been absent from DGRIN for quite some time... I figure it is about time to start sharing again... Here are a few images of recording artist Robbie Walden. I used a very simple 2 light set in an attempt to get a more dramatic feel... Let me know what you think

Nice images, I like the dramatic feel. My nit is in #3 the light is also highlighting a well developed muscle, in the lower left of the frame, a bit too much drawing my eye to it constantly and making it seem weird. Darkening the bright spot on that muscle would fix that IMHO.
What is he doing in #1? Does he play an instrument or is he a vocal artist? Is my old age showing by having to ask?
I especially like the under saturated colors used here.

Thank you... and no, not showing your age at all.. he is an up and coming country singer/guitar player from Tacoma, Wa. In the 1st image I just wanted him looking down.. he is really not doing anything but I liked the look there.

I do slightly agree that the bright spot mentioned may distract a little but it doesn't bother me too too much... I might take some time and do a little burn there

Really like the tone of these shots. 3 & 4 are my favorites too (though on #3 I'd prefer it not to be so slanted). I can't tell what's happening in #1 and #2 feels kind of like a pin-up, which to me makes no sense for a big ol' country dude.
