By Default WordPress only includes the excerpt in the RSS feed. Many a times one might need to add the Featured Image to WordPress RSS feed.
There are two ways to go about it

In other words the idea is to only load images which are visible to users. The images which are below the fold will not be loaded until the user scrolls to them. It reduces the amount of resources to be loaded thus resulting in faster webpages.
This technique can be extremely effective for websites with ton of images. So if you are developing a photography websites or a Pinterest like website the you should definitely look into this.
