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!

GBH in early morning light.
I followed this heron for about 1/4 down the bank as he was fishing for his breakfast. The sun was very low in the sky and was masked by tress in many of the shot, Lots of keepers in this series.

Quite nice. Good light. I think I like #3 (flying, refection) the best.

All are nice but I agree that #3 is the best. Hope you find great light too, and continue to share the results.

I normally like action shots more, but I think #1 is my favorite here. The ruffle feathers and reflection really make it for me. All are great though.

How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
