Photo By Christoph Stopka Today’s Photo of the Day is “Foggy Petit Manan Sunrise” by Christoph Stopka. Location: Steuben, Maine. “I shot this photo by drone because it was simply a foggy, soupy mess where I was standing (on the shore of the bay, eye level with the forest), but I figured that it would most likely look completely different from above,” explains Stopka. “I guessed right…what a beautiful scene suddenly opening up below the drone!

I went to work for Galen that same month, and I swore to him that someday I would experience that sublime vista with my own eyes. August 11 of this year marks 20 years since the plane crash...

The beauty of digital photography is that once you have paid for the camera and storage, you can take as many images as you want at essentially no additional cost. Of course, on the other hand, when it comes to film photography, every press of the shutter incurs an additional cost.
