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!

Talking First Print from Smugmug
Finally decided to have one of my own shots printed and I'm so pleased

I read and followed the tutorial, nice job folks. Did the soft proof with the EZprints profile, tagged the image and then when out on a limb with true color. PERFECT!

The print matches what I see on my monitor exactly, yippee, well done folks

w000t it's really nice to hear, Nonda. Thanks for letting us know, it means a lot.

Prints, are what it's all about, to me. Sure, I love sharing online, and displaying electronically, but Oh The Prints!

I can second that!
I have received prints from Smugmug (EZPrints). Always very good!

Once i got pictures that had cut of part of the sides... more than i expected, but still within the allowed values for the 'bleed'. But they reprinted them for free after i changed my pics to better allow for that bleed.

You know if I hadn't read all the tutorial I wouldn't have known about the bleed and cutting and the shot I wanted printed as an 8x10 was at the limits, me thinks. So I used canvas taking it out to 11x14, bit of overkill but I have pleanty of room to add matting and frame and keep the photo at 8x10.

Won't go quite that far next time

Nothing like a big ol' print to gander at, that's for sure. I just saw some of my 11x14's today displayed for a portfolio show for a designer-- pretty darn cool to see someone else using them to show off their clothing designs.
