In the summer of 2008, the Arkansas Democrat Gazette held a contest in which hundreds of photographers submitted depictions of the Natural State. In the course of
the contest I made a few friends and came away deeply impressed by the depth of our photographic talent, often at the hands of weekend photographers. Here are the sites of some fellow photo enthusiasts, ranging from serious hobbyists to full time pros.
