Out Of The Box, In Camera and Post Processing Tech

Not every image adheres to the so called "rules" of traditional photography. This forum is dedicated to breaking out of the box of conformity. Post Avian, Wildlife, Macro/Flora, Landscapes and other Natural History images with or without hand of man elements that will expose us to new ideas and new ways of thinking. This forum is for Out-of-the-Box images made in-camera (including infrared) or those modified using a variety of post processing techniques including but not limited to Photoshop filters and plug-ins, toning, de-saturation, and hand coloring among others.

Story Sequences

We are proud to introduce the creation of a new BPN Forum: “Story Sequences.” In this forum members only will be able to post no more than 5 images of the same subject or scene that tell a story. Rather than offering critiques on the individual images we are seeking comments on the story, on the effectiveness of the photographic sequence.
