How to Start A New Project in Photoshop

Gary Detonnancourt

Start with File - New Photoshop can be hard to learn and there are a ton of tutorials out there that are just too difficult for beginners. I wanted to make a series that would help anyone having trouble getting started. Don't give up, you can learn this!

Log Cabins & Boats

Gary Detonnancourt

This summer I went to Lake Parlin Lodge & Cabins for a relaxing and scenic vacation.  I had never been to this place or to this part of Maine, and I was very pleasantly surprised by how nice it was.  The cabins were beautiful and so was the scenery.  There was a little over an hours ride on scenic route 201 toward Canada, and once you get there don't expect touristy activites or shopping or any other activities.  This place offers quite, tranquility and outdoor adventures.  It was great for my kids to enjoy the lake and the fire pits and for me there was some nice photographic opportunities.

American Bald Eagle

Gary Detonnancourt

I photographed this family of bald eagles in Maine on a recent trip.  They were pretty far away so I don't have any stunning shots but still they are fun to look at.  Some were shot with the Canon 100-400 mm lens while others were shot with a GH4 and a Cannon 400 mm f/5.6 with a 2x teleconverter.

Old Canada Road National Scenic Byway

Gary Detonnancourt

This is a panoramic image I just shot in Maine, as I was driving up the Old Canada Road toward Canada.  I stitched 9 vertical images shot with the Canon 100-400 mm lens at 120 mm.  I believe the pond in the background is called Attean Pond.
