Coast-to-Coast for the Panthers

Here's a little East Coast photo in honor of our Panthers heading to the West Coast for Super Bowl 50! 

Figure Eight Island is a beautiful, exclusive beach community just outside of Wilmington, North Carolina. We visited the island for a friend's bachelor party and I managed to get in quite a few flights.  

Stay tuned for more photos and maybe even some videos from Figure Eight in the future!

I've decided to do something a little different with today's post and give you a peek behind the scenes of creating today's photograph.

Check out my YouTube channel to see the transformation of this photograph from my camera, through Lightroom, and on to the Web. Consider it a beginners Lightroom tutorial. Let me know if you enjoy seeing the step-by-step process that I take in getting a photo ready for primetime and if you do, I'll record more of my editing sessions. If you've never used Lightroom before, you will be shocked at how simple (and fun) it can be!

This photograph was captured with a DJI Phantom 3 Professional drone.
