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!

Going to the land of waterfalls.
I'm headed out to the Brevard area of NC the first week in November mainly to shoot waterfalls. I'll be working out of Kevin Adams book North Carolina Waterfalls but thought that asking here would be a good idea also. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who has shot in this area. Which ones are the can't miss waterfall, which ones are not worth the hike. Any other attractions that must be photographed?

biltmore area is nice
looking glass falls is nice
sliding rock is nice w/ the leaves
be careful on looking glass, don't be like the guy a few months ago who fell off and died.

Hi hiro, I'm moving your thread to the Locations forum since it's probably more appropriate.

Hello,
I am going to Brevard an area to shoot wterfalls on October 27th for three or four days; back on the 29th or 30th. I should be able to tell you exactly then.
There is a man named Craig Miller in Brevard who has a sideline business called Millers Land of Waterfall Tours. He does guides/tours for about six waterfalls from around 8am until 1 pm on the days he does it at all. He has a link on the Brevard Chamber of Commerce and is a member.
He charges seventy five dollars, not bad. He does many that are not the usual touristy stops and can accomodate your level of hiking. He can then give you an itenerary, etc.. for what and where including directions to the others you can do on your own. Email me at hmottejr@sc.rr.com and I can get back to you via email the email I have from another man in the area with an iteneray and directins for a days 'loop'.

I forgot to mention a link to an "Index" that has links to all of the waterfalls with photos and directions and a link to another one that has a list of ones in the greenville area (i think) that has links and photos and levels of difficulty for the trails to get to them. The index link is www.ncwateralls.com/index2.htm and the other is http://www.carolinatrails.com/SouthC...eenvillesc.htm

Thanks for the replies. I'll take these
biltmore area is nice
looking glass falls is nice
sliding rock is nice w/ the leaves
into consideration, and I promise to watch my step at looking glass.

gdaddy - looking forward to hearing about your trip. I'm not much for tours, but may consider it depending on your experience. I'll e-mail you for the information. Thanks again.

Hi, Mr. Miller is taking me only, as my guide it is not a tour group.
He will do the same for others, I think.
I have some other info for you and will email it to you.
