creole wisdom: behind the camera, "the goods"

Photography became my muse right before I graduated from high school.  Then, as a freshman, I got bored one day and felt bold enough to crack open the owner's manual for the giant, intimating Canon 20D.  I am still learning, and that manual looks well loved-

Camera:
Canon 20D

Lens:
85 mm 1.8

50 mm 1.8

"kit" lens

Tripods:

Ambico V-0555

Joby GP1-01EN Gorillapod

Camera Bag:
Crumpler Bazillon Dollar Home (go ebay, I swear by it)

More on photography:

•I print the majority of my pictures at home on my inexpensive/college girl Epson printer, and I firmly believe that paper quality has more to do with great at home prints than the actual printer.  When I took digital photography second semester 2007, I used this paper and have been hooked ever since.  It delivers fantastic results.
•This wonderful woman who I have found through the blog world, Emily Falconbridge, sells amazing camera straps. I cannot wait to order one!
•Want to have your photos frameless, what if they floated off of the wall? When I have a home someday I plan on doing this. So neat.
•The best photoshop actions, in my opinion, are available here. They are great, I love their new package
•Reality of it is, I'm a student and so cash is not just falling off of trees.  So, keep in mind this is a growing collection 4-5 years in the making and most of my goods are ebay finds.  Ebay is like my drug, go there and score some photography toys!
