How to use it
Foto (photo) is feminine: la foto. It is a shortened form of 'fotografía', which is feminine. Even though the shortening ends in -o, the original gender is retained.
Common mistake
'Foto' looks masculine because of its -o ending, but it's feminine — la foto, una foto. The same applies to 'moto' (motorcycle).
