Stories on the road, in the wild and under water …

Still there, but busy

Just a quick note to tell everyone that I’m still around, but haven’t really had time to post new pictures or write more blog posts. I’ve started a new life and that’s keeping me very busy.

In the mean time check out some older photos in my gallery or in my underwater portfolio.

See you around!

The facebook connection

I’ve just hooked up this blog to my facebook profile.

I you know me and have registered with facebook, then find me and add me. If you are already on my friends list then “hello” anyways. And don’t send me invites for silly applications :-)

This is more or less a test blog post to see if it works.

New gallery design

New gallery colour schemeThe gallery section of this website has a new design using darker colours and a mostly grey colour scheme. The older bright colour scheme didn’t do most of the photos too many favours. An image has to “work” that much harder on a white background than on a dark background. A dark background generally makes an image “pop” more, i.e. the colours seem more vibrant.
The Portfolio of underwater images was my first attempt at presenting photos on a dark background and it worked so well that I reworked my old coppermine theme to use the same technique. The new theme is called “dark_fred” and apart from more pleasing colours it has a much clearer page layout (I got rid of a lot of unneeded functionality).

Check out the new look of the gallery…

You will also find a drop down box at the bottom of the page which lets you switch back to the previous theme (called “light_fred“).

More than 10000 full image views!

Oak Leaf

The coppermine gallery system that I use for my photos has a vanity feature that counts how many times an image was viewed in full-page mode (thumbnail views are not counted).

 

Today that counter passed the 10000 mark! Thanks for all your interest.

Happy New Year

The first few months of building this website has been a lot of fun. I hope you enjoyed the photos and the posts and stories. There will be more of the same thing in 2007.

I wish everyone who drops by my little website a happy and prosperous new year.
