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!

Interesting pic. Why the vignetting in the upper-left and lower-right?

Crappy lens on the C2500L; that shows up on wide angle. I could crop it, but I'm too lazy.

Yea, we rode it I think three times while I was there. I hate the climb up there, but you can't beat the scenery. The whole area was just photo op heaven.

Popular spot, one of the most popular trails I've ever ridden, and you can see why.

You mean the long slog from the parking lot? BTDT

We rode it in late June when Marlett Lake was still covering what was the
trail. I think that was the best time. Later in the year, the trail turns to deep
sand.

This was early July. There was only a short section of trail still covered with water.

1. Cropped slightly to remove the vignette.
2. Applied the auto contrast thingy in photoshop elements.
3. Slight sharpening with unsharp mask in PE.
4. Save for web, attach.
