They can steal my camera, but they can’t prevent me from buying a new one, and they definitely can’t hold me back from enjoying, editing and publishing my art.

As you may have noticed, I’ve been working on a new gallery system that uses Flash for the eye-candy, but also embeds into my website really well. I make these galleries using SlideShowPro. You can see the result in my Photography section. My travels to Italy and Finland this year have resulted in thousands of new pictures, thanks to the wonders of digital photography. Weeding through them and getting out the best ones has been a time consuming task, but I’m really happy and proud of a lot of them.

In time, I’m hoping to incorporate all of my earlier galleries and travels into this new gallery system as well. I have already added a portfolio section that holds 20 pictures in each of the following themes: people, nature, and structures. There’s also a separate SKC section for all pictures that I took as a member of my volleyball club SKC, including pictures of trainings, competition evenings, parties, and activities.

Furthermore, I’ve started publishing my photographs on deviantArt, a huge website where artists expose their work, give and receive feedback, and buy each other’s art. I’ve enjoyed checking out people’s pictures, ’cause there really are some magnificent artists out there. Educationally speaking, I still think photosig.com is even more useful, but to just ’show off’ your work, deviantArt seems to be a better place. In case you’re interested, my girlfriend IsobelMoon is also on deviantArt.

Soon I’ll post another update in another category: “Romantic”.
