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!

Lily Leaf Beetle


<br><br>A lily leaf beetle (<i>Lilioceris lilii</i>).&nbsp; The nice thing about invasive species are that you get such great opportunities to see the world's animals right in your front yard...<br><br>I'm not terribly happy with the blown out highlights in the carapace, and am brainstorming how to best diffuse the flash with my current setup.<br>

Haha, unfortunately I'm not a gardener and didn't know about they were such pests until I started reading about them after I did the ID. Darn invasives.
