Photo By Harry Lichtman Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Many Glacier Valley” by Harry Lichtman. Location: Glacier National Park, Montana. “A stormy sunrise over the Many Glacier Valley and Lake Sherburne in Glacier National Park,” describes Lichtman. “Grey clouds turned every shade of orange and red as the first rays of the sun struck the distant peaks.

The post The Sony a7 IV Will Launch in October With a 33 MP Sensor appeared first on Digital Photography School. It was authored by Jaymes Dempsey.

Unfortunately, the shortage will affect a7 IV availability, and you can expect “that supplies will be limited during the first months” of a7 IV shipments. While few a7 IV specs have been released – and none have been unveiled directly by...

It’s a really easy, but a really helpful one, too. It’s how to see an instant side-by-side before and after of your image. Like you see above. The shortcut? The letter “y.” That’s it. Y gets you into that side-by-side and pressing Y one more time returns you to your normal view. Hope you found that helpful.

The lake’s North Shore, stretching more than 150 miles from the port city of Duluth, Minnesota, to the U.S.-Canada border and beyond, lays claim to some of the most stunning and accessible scenery in the American Midwest. Minnesota State Highway 61 parallels the North Shore and provides access to seven state parks, all of which boast raging rivers and streams, cascading waterfalls and miles of hiking trails. Most parks also contain an...
