It seems to me that to call your own work "fine art" is pretentious. To define your own work as "documentary" is not, especially if you are really making an effort to document (as you do). My old website was called "Sonny Carter Documentary Photography" After illness reduced my mobility, I moved my work to the "look" blog. I thought it more intellectually honest, since my primary subjects were those at hand. ( It takes a lot of effort to go shoot like I once did) Regards, Sonny http://sonc.com/look/ Natchitoches, Louisiana USA
