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!

Do Woodpeckers Skate?
Taken in April ...

When I was photographing the Robins a Woodpecker came flying in. It didn't know there was ice on the water. Almost slide right out and then tried walking on the ice vs flying off of it.



Looks like he's saying .. "How do I get off of here"

That's funny - great shots!!!

I'd say in the second picture that he is chewing out the robins for not warning him about the ice

In the second image I thought he might be saying "stop laughing, this ain't funny". Since neither of the Robins moved they must have been unimpressed

Howdy ...

The Woodpecker kept sliding around on the ice till he finally made it to the left edge. Those claws of his didn't do him any good. It was fun to watch .. gave me a good few minutes of entertainment
