The contest is NOT FREE TO ENTER! It is $5 to submit one photo and $7 to submit two photos and $10 for three photos.

The winners will then have their images framed and put up in our store as well as shared all over FBI’s web assets. The theme for this month is “The Arrival of Spring.” For questions, comments, or suggestions about our monthly photo contests feel free to email us at our new email specifically for the contests at fbiphotocontest@gmail.com

Lensbaby Weekend?

We here at FBI are toying with the idea of having a Lensbaby Weekend sometime in the next couple of months. What is Lensbaby Weekend you ask? The concept is that we have a three day seminar on a Friday, Saturday, and Sunday focusing on you getting your hands on a Lenbaby Composer plus some accessories for it and learning what it does, how it works, and what it could do for your photography. It would be limited to about 20 people. Each person would receive a Composer to use during the three days for either Nikon, Canon, or Sony DSLRs. Day one would be an introduction to the Lensbaby Composer and we would discuss and demonstrate the concept of what they do. Day two would be a guided outdoor shoot around the Asheville area with your Composer’s and accessories. And day three would be a friendly critique of what you feel were some your best images captured with your Lensbaby over the course of the weekend. At the end we would offer all participants of the seminar a discount on purchasing Lenbaby of their own. Were thinking $100 or so would be a fair price for all of this. What say you?

Our first month open was a great success! Thank you everyone who came out to see us and who will continue to visit us and please keep spreading the word about us : ) We talked to someone from the Citizen-Times so hopefully there will be an article about us in the coming weeks. Our first field trip is on October 15th to Cades Cove so call us about that if your interested. And we got BlackRapid straps last week and today we got some LensBabies for Canon and Nikon cameras!!!
