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!

Yakima Peak
Hi Guys, First post here. Most people when they visit Mt Rainier and Lake Tipsoo usually don't take pictures of Yakima Peak, but Mt Rainier instead. Fortunately for me upon arriving at Lake Tipsoo, Yakima Peak wasn't covered in clouds and made for a good alternative. Thanks for looking.



Same place 20 minutes later

Beautiful shots. The second one gives me that "Wizard of Oz" feeling.

Great shots, Deej!

The blurred flower in the first one is a bit of a bummer for me because it's a bit distracting to an otherwise beautiful image.

The second one though... WOW!
Simply stunning!

Wow! Welcome to Dgrin and these are great captures that pack a lot of punch!

If you're in the PNW too then I think you'll fit right in with the crew!

Welcome! I look forward to seeing more of your work. I agree with everyone else about #2--gorgeous colors and lighting. It's a very inviting image.
