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!

I'm getting very daring with my street photography. My attitude: If you don't want to be photographed, stay home.

This is great Frank! My friends and I used to joke when we'd see ladies with big fuzzy hats on that they had cats on their heads....this is so much better! Is there a story behind this guy?

Jen, ready for this? He has the cat on his head, in union square, asking people for donations. LoL. I've seen it all. It's amazing what people will do to make money. I assure you, he's raking in more money than all of us.

BD, I read somewhere that the statistic for being on camera, in NYC (specifically Manhattan) is about 10,000 times per day. What's one more? LoL. I love his expression, you can tell I just walked up to him, set my exposure and took the shot. Hahahahhaha.

Thanks for all of the comments guys, street, and PJ are fun. Once you break out of the,"Will they get mad at me for taking the shot..." mentality, it's actually quite fun. You would also be surprised on how many people will let you take thier picture. I shot this, on that same day.


Afterwards, he let me take a shot of him.

Hilarious capture. I love the story within it, and the "WTH?" moment it inspires. Except now I'm wondering how to train my cats to do this...
