Best of the Web #45

KayakingGood afternoon (or other variant based on where you are), and welcome to another edition of best of the web.  This past week had a lot of photography roundups, everything from out-of-bounds style to tilt-shift photography.  Also, there were two interesting tutorials on comic and cartoon style illustrations.  My personal favorite post was a review of Photoshop brushes by SmashingMagazine, but of course, all the posts from past week that are included here are pretty good and definitely worth seeing.

Anyways, hope you all like, and as always, if you have any comments or suggestions for me, or want to contribute, don’t hesitate to contact me.

Have a great day!
