Ok guys! I finally found a Wordpress template that I love so I got it activated and started to update my slow dying blog with the hopes of bringing it back to life!

It's still a work in progress but I've been spending my time recently going through some of my older images and getting them posted on the blog in order to populate it a bit more.

I've added a couple of different plugins such as Socialable, Google Analytics, Subscribe by Email.

thanks!

I shoot in RAW, edit in Lightroom, resize, add logo and sharpen in Photoshop. That's it.

I like the format with large pictures. One thing I've seen too often is the small size of the pictures on a lot of photogs' blogs, doesn't make sense to me. This looks just about right, either that or my format is similar in size and I'm just biased toward it

The site is exceptional! I too love the large images (reminds me why I also love Boston.com/bigpicture) :)
