Creating a ‘Simulated’ HDR Photo Using Photoshop’s Layers
Lots of people are into the High Dynamic Range photos but sometimes they don’t quite turn out the way you’d envisioned. Here’s an interesting tutorial that uses Adobe Photoshop’s Layer Blending to create a ‘simulated’ HDR image by widening the visible range. Give it a try if you’ve got time. Digital Photography School: Select the…

Photo of the Day: Yosemite Fall by Ralph Arvesen
Holy crap! Today is Wednesday? I’ve been so busy with other things I totally lost track of time. Ralph emailed me and said that if I posted his photo as Photo of the Day he’d pay me $5. Well, sorry Ralph, your photos are just too good. I can’t take your money. Just kidding, Ralph…

Photo of the Day: Yosemite Falls at Night by Sean Walsh
Sean Walsh sent in this really cool pic of Upper Yosemite Fall at night he took last April and I must say, I really like it. Sean says the trees were lit by the ground lights so I’m guessing those are the ones outside Yosemite Lodge. They add a nice contrast to the shot. Nicely…

Photo of the Day: Yosemite by Kyle Roderick
I love summer in California. Unfortunately it’s not the most interesting time to be a nature photographer. The skies are blue and listless. The light is often overly bright and washes everything out. It’s great for a suntan but lousy for photography. This photo, however, is the exception. I stumbled across this one while reviewing…

Very beautiful, Edie. You can find more of Edie’s beautiful shots and some of her writings over on her blog at http://www.littleredtent.net/blog.…

Photo of the Day: Last Star and First Light at Vogelsang by Edie Howe-Byrne
It’s been a long time since I posted one of Edie’s photos as Photo of the Day and it’s not that her photos aren’t the best, it’s that I felt it wasn’t fair if I made her photo Photo of the Day EVERYDAY. When I saw this photo though I knew it HAD to be…
