Finland Holiday Photos Part 2

Around 5.3 million people reside in Finland, with the majority concentrated in the southern part of the country.

The second official language of Finland, Swedish, is the mother tongue of 5.5 percent of the population.  Finland is a democratic, parliamentary republic...

Photoshop Tutorial: In 5 Steps to a shocking Text

1. Create a new image 400×400px with a “transparent” background. Rename the only existing layer “back”. Fill ( Edit > Fill ) layer “back” with black ( Hext #000000 ). Using the Horizontal Type Tool, write some large text in white ( Hex #FFFFFF ). For this tutorial, I wrote “Duckeldanny” in 80 pt with the font Impact. Rasterize the text ( Layer > Rasterize > Text ). Rename the layer that has the now rasterized text “Text”. 2. Duplicate layer “Text” and rename the new layer “Text 2”. Hide layer “Text 2” by clicking on the eye to the left...

Richard Brunets IR 9

Photo from one of the best infrared photographers In infrared photography, the film or image sensor used is sensitive to infrared light. The part of the spectrum used is referred to as near-infrared to distinguish it from far-infrared, which is the domain of thermal imaging. Wavelengths used for photography range from about 700 nm to about 900 nm. Usually an “infrared filter” is used; this lets infrared (IR) light pass through to the camera, but blocks all or most of the visible light spectrum (the filter thus looks black or deep red). When these filters are used together with infrared-sensitive...

Fantasy Art Photopshop Tutorial – Plasma in the Lake

Make a new canvas, we used 600*480 px here, but the size is of course optional. Select the Gradient Tool, using two shades of blue (see below), fill your canvas, so that the darker colour will be on top. Take a photo of a girl. Traditionally I am using Becca’s photo from her Deviant Art account, but you can replace her with any semi-sitting figure of your choice. Crop the figure and paste her unto your canvas. In needed, resize her so that she will fit in. To get rid of the visible crappy cropping, and to give the girl more emphasis, add blueish glow to her by going to Layer >> Layer...

Autumn Idyll

In North America, autumn is also associated with the Halloween season (which in turn was influenced by Samhain, a Celtic autumn festival), and with it a widespread marketing campaign that promotes it. The television, film, book, costume, home decoration, and confectionery industries use this time of year to promote products closely associated with such holiday, with promotions going from early September to 31 October, since their themes rapidly lose strength once the holiday ends, and advertising starts concentrating on Christmas. Since 1997, Autumn has been one of the top 100 names for girls in...

Landscape and Nature

Landscape photography is a genre intended to show different spaces within the world, sometimes vast and unending, but other times microscopic. Many landscape photographers show little or no human activity in their photos, striving to attain pure, unsullied landscapes that are devoid of human influence, using instead subjects such as strongly defined landforms, weather, and ambient light. Despite this, there is no pure or absolute definition of what makes a landscape in photography, as such it has become a very broad term, encompassing urban, industrial, macro and nature photography. A beach full...
