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!

Second Attempt At Friday Night Football
Being as I picked up a new 70-200mm 2.8, I thought I'd give night high school football another try. I really missed the reach the 80-400 VR had, but the speed of the 70-200 coupled with the snappy AF (which the 80-400 doesn't have), gave much better results when the subjects were in range.

These used a monopod mounted flash..

It's tough to get really good facial expressions with the short reach of the 70-200, but the "action" images were acceptable to me.

FWIW...These were taken for an online news outlet which publishes everything in a landscape format.
