Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

David. I've used Clickpic for a few years to create a couple of sites. If you look at their website they have all the pricing and information on templates you need. My own site is a basic £40 per year option. If you need any help send me a pm.

Yes, a nice clean design - no fuss getting in the way of the gorgeous images.

I do love the creative way you have used selective focussing in many shots and the split-toned print of what looks like a back-lit decaying tulip in ice (0046 closeup) makes me feel like I am under water and watching it float by above me. Beautiful.

Cheers.

Very professional looking David.

Really clear concise layout - plus I love the font and its colour.

I hope you think it was worth all the time and effort you put in to it.

Thank you Martin. I'm pleased with the end result, it has been a lockdown project. Regarding the font, I spent my working life in the printing industry and always thought Sans Serif fonts gave a much cleaner look to any work.

I am not a great consumer of websites but I enjoyed looking at this one and echo many of the other comments about its clarity, ease of use, quality of the scanned prints, and interest of the short articles

My only slight reservation I have which is a problem I have with many displays of prints or photographs is that I like some sort of context beyond the image itself be it technical, what attracted the photographer, or the where, when and why of the image. This only applies to some of the images included. Perhaps this is a failure or lack of imagination on my part.

Mike

Congratulations, David, well done. One of the best websites by photographers, which I have seen so far. Clarity is key and the photographs are wonderful.
