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!

Morning all,
What do you think--too obvious?
I shot this with a lensbaby macro.

I definitely didn't get ring the first few times I looked at this...but now I see it! I like that it isn't obvious at first. And I really like the lighting you used.

Hi Tatiana,
Yes it's my engagement ring. I've been wearing it for 10 years and looks pretty beaten up! With the macro lens anyway:)

Hi Tammy,
Glad it wasn't too obvious. I was very happy with the lighting for this so I processed accordingly and made it even more dreamy looking.

Thanks for commenting.

I do like this shot, although I have to admit that I did recognise it as an engagement ring when I first saw it.


Love the dreamy quality

Tim

Been married since Aug of 1999. So really I've been wearing the ring for almost 12 years, lol, leave it to me to get the dates wrong, I actually forgot my first wedding anniversary!

My wedding ring is actually right underneath the engagement ring in this shot, but you can barely see it.

I wanted the shot to say something about marriage "scuffed" sometimes they can take a little beating :).
