Please feel free to have a look and do not hold back on the (obviously constructive
) critique!! All critique appreciated.
Thanks
Thanks
Unfortunately its another Clickpic based site. Sure they allow you to get a site up quickly but it looks just like every other Clickpic users site. Yes it looks nice, as does everyone elses.
You've used 'keen' twice in the same sentence in the About Us section - not major I know but unnescessary repetition always really annoys me!
Also I would probably remove the landscape section until it actually has content, otherwise it looks a bit slap-dash.
Anton learned various aspects of photography while he was an official photographer in service of the government. He enjoys all aspects of Black & White darkroom work and, despite the digital age being way past dawning and drawing from more than fifteen years experience, he still learns on a daily basis.
Ulrike, Anton's wife, has more than five years of amateur photographic experience and has a keen eye for still life shots. It is a good thing at least one of us isn't constantly caught up in the overly technical.
Me too! I used to only post my shots on forums until the other day when I finally got a flickr account so added a signature to include it. Though if anyone has any constructive criticism better you tell Yahoo! rather than me.
Anyway back to Anton's site. It may be a standard design, but it is a smart one which lets your photography sell itself, which is what really matters.
The News section still has the example stories still in it. You should delete these, and so that the section is not empty your first news story can be "Capture It Photography launches new site".
Again in the Links it seems to be the defaults, you could keep the links if you want but you should remove the line "Use this section to add links to other sites. This section is optional."
On the About Us page the use of "I" is a bit confusing at first as it was not established who was talking and even reading on the reader has to deduce it. Maybe it is just me but switching to the singular comes across as more personal than professional, so instead I would go with something like:
As I say, that it just what I would have done, you might prefer the more personal approach, though if you do I would sign the page with your name so that it makes it clear that it is your description.
