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!

So may be it's a sigh that we need to slow down, relax and reflect on thibrings our next topic: Reflections.

The goal is to shoot things reflected.

A pond, a pool, a puddle, a shiny car, a chrome casserole, or, kh-m, a mirror or store window - all those will do.

A polarizer definitely can be a great helper here.

For the rest of the basic rules and index please check out this sticky.

Let's get reflected!



Better late than never? First photo is not an effect, it is a true reflection of a moonrise. The sun was setting behind me, which gave that beatifull color in the sky. Second image was a stump in a pond that just caught my eye.

My first try at assignments...

I wish I would have paid attention more to what was around. It wasn't until I got home and uploaded that I saw the fire engine in the reflection. I wish I would have gotten just the engine. I was more worried about getting the kids (who were not complying). Oh well, just another lesson for me to pay attention to my surroundings :)

Is the FireChief SKUM???
I was looking in the window of a fireboat house. I'm not sure if the nickname of that water cannon is SKUM or if that's just a clue to the "boss".

Anyway, I thought it was a pretty good reflection..

Sorry, bud, very nice shot, but it's a bit of a stretch for the Reflection, it's more like a Difraction
