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!

Must be the angry side of the female rust then, Tom. Red and orangey.

Well, Jiro, I'll admit that it's awfully difficult for me to accurately assess the moods or thought processes of the female. But, in viewing the evidence shown in The Great Divide and The Great Divide II, it's pretty clear that the two parties are almost diametrically opposed. Makes for some interesting times, don't you think?

I hear you, Don. But, when the Rust Gods decide to let it all hang out, who knows what will show up?

Take care,

Tom

Lord have mercy, Mary. After all those kind words, I think I'll haul down the flag and take a month off.

Then again, I sense a somewhat thinly-veiled endorsement for the female position....as would seem appropriate.

As evident in the Great Divide, the male is prone to extravagance, exhibits a propensity to over-react, and suffers an obvious proclivity for self-indulgence. Conversely, in the Great Divide II, the female shows a much more balanced and measured response curve, appears to be capable of a more forgiving nature, yet, when pushed to the wall, has the reserves to bash the hell out of an antagonist.

Who would have thought that two, simple, photos could be so divulging.

Take care,

Tom

Man shes chewing on some issues on the right side. Looks a little like heavy weather brewing there. Could get ugly maybe But on the left I see she is calm, settled, resolute and focused. I'd say shes is quite a good mood all things considered. I see a woman in a long dress narrow at the waist forming.
Her arms are cheerily raised as though she is going to greet the world with a smile no matter what and is doing so. Or is that just me praying for best case scenario As in I want to live to see another day.

Ah, Michael. I can always count on you for some fresh insight and interpretive contemplations. I personally make no claims as to my ability to decipher the female makeup; I just relish what they bring to the table.
