The site looks good to me - simple, uncluttered and easy to navigate. The photos are pretty impressive as well.

It dosen't work for me, as it is just a link to your photos on another forum.
A personal website should be just that; personal. A place to show off your best 50 pictures, promote your latest assignment, etc.

I wonder what site it was based on.....

I think the title/banner needs to remain when linking photos from elsewhere. If done well guests may think they are still at your site.

It could also do with an 'about' and 'contact' pages to provide a more compete feel.

Take a look at my site for an example of these additional items, although I may do a redesign of mine shortly.

They are on my list of pages to do. Should be online within the next few weeks.

Put a couple of your absolute best photos on the landing page (but keep file size down for speed) You're a photographer, that's what your site is about... there should be evidence of that from the moment someone arrives.

cheers,
Andy

Also, this end anyway, the default width of the sidebar 'browse' area takes up too much of the screen, over a 1/3... possibly down to the width of some of the decriptions in the dropdown menu (notably 2006 airshows).

cheers,
Andy

I am aware of that problem. I will tackle that soon. All feedback is welcome and points like that help.
