INSPIRATIONAL PHOTO OF THE DAY FEC Editor’s notes: Everyone can appreciate a good waterfall, so why not extra appreciate one in the beautiful Isle of Skye, Ireland? When photographing a waterfall in daylight, you’ll definitely need a tripod and probably a neutral density filter. The tripod is needed so you can have a low enough […]
INSPIRATIONAL PHOTO OF THE DAY FEC Editor’s notes: If you’ve ever been on a cruise, you know those ships are massive. What’s even better is when you’re on one of these massive cruise ships sailing through Alaska, making your ship feel more like a dingy. Taken while on an Alaskan Cruise this past March. I […]
INSPIRATIONAL PHOTO OF THE DAY FEC Editor’s notes: It’s mentally fall when school starts, but the weather doesn’t always reflect the mood.

INSPIRATIONAL PHOTO OF THE DAY FEC Editor’s notes: Someone once told me it’s the eyes of a portrait that draw you in, so you better make sure they’re in focus. This portrait is brilliantly laid out. Her eyes are in focus, but the position of her body and legs, keeps you moving around the image. […]

INSPIRATIONAL PHOTO OF THE DAY FEC Editor’s notes: Let’s begin the explanation of this image by saying it was not photoshopped. Photographer Randall J Hodges is the king of in-camera perfection. The bold colors you are seeing (and thinking it must be photoshopped) are all specific settings in his camera. When shooting for perfection in-camera, […]
INSPIRATIONAL PHOTO OF THE DAY FEC Editor’s notes: Most people keep their landscapes in color. Mark Maio sees things a little differently by turning most of his landscapes black and white.
