Art: In the Cotton Field by Artist Monica Faith
Riding near Raleigh, North Carolina one day, I saw a cotton field and realized with all the stories I'd heard about "pickin' cotton", I'd never seen it in the field. So I pulled over on the side of the road and checked it out with camera in tow. The photography I held onto from that day will probably always be some of my favorite. This top photo was not graphically altered, but was cropped.

Basic information below copied and pasted to each photography piece in my EBSQ portfolio:

Digital photography is merely a hobby for me at this point, and this would be apparent to any professional photographer who got a gander at my camera. As a hobbyist, I'm learning on a Fuji Finepix S6000fd. I wanted something better than a standard point-and-shoot of course, and this one gives me some pretty solid manual controls to practice with. The picture stabilization sucks according to the pro's reviews, so I can blame some of my photos on this setback. I like the face detection and 28-300mm zoom. It earned great reviews for the price range, but at $600 it's a far cry from the $4,000+ Nikon D3 Santa refuses to bring me. That's okay, I haven't learned enough about digital photography to be requesting a $4,000 camera. Yet.
