Today's featured photo is chosen from ViewBug (The World's Best Photo Contests) community. I used my Nikon D800 with 70-200mm lens, at 200mm, 1/200s at f2.8, 2/3 EV. I was with a group of photographers at a local equine rescue facility taking images for them to use to help get the horses adopted and to raise funds.

Today's featured photo is chosen from ViewBug (The World's Best Photo Contests) community. This picture was taken in the Valle del Bove in Sicily, Italy. On October 26th, 2013, the volcano Etna began to erupt. I spent the whole night there with my cousin to film and photograph the eruption, to have a memory, not only a mental memory, but also a visual one. I used a Nikon D7000 with a Nikon Af-s DX 18-105 f/3.5-5.6 G ED VR. The settings were Focal Length: 21mm with shutter speed at 20 secs and aperture f/4 with ISO: 1000.
