Auto Align Layers in Photoshop
How well do you trust it? While I was creating the Exposure Merging course for Exploring HDR the Video Series I had to use Photoshop's auto align layers feature to ensure the layers fell directly on top of each other. Usually Photoshop can do this flawlessly!...

An HDR Grunge Match!
Not a Grunge Match... a Grudge Match! When I was putting together the course Exploring HDR: The Video Series, I had to record a tutorial for every HDR Method I use on a routine basis. This was kind of a chore for me as I am pretty fond of the Photomatix look as you...

Domke Next Generation Chronicle: RuggedWear Military Bag Review
A Camera Bag to End All Searches A great camera bag is just as essential as a great tripod, ball head, or filter. I have often disregarded the importance of a good camera bag, it just seems like one of those things that you don't want to have to spend the money on to...

Walking Dead Intro Effect | Photoshop CC
