    The ads are bigger than the photos. You'll get visitors, but not return visitors.

    Yeah, you have a decent site, but I'd recommend making the twitter, facebook, following buttons smaller. They're just far too big. Also, the ads are bigger than the photos. Also it just seems really crowded. Search boxes should be smaller in my opinion, and a lot of the stuff on your right side is kind of overkill. Besides all that, you have a decent site there.

    First thing that caught my eye when opening the site up was the dreadful background image you're using. If you're meant to be about photography then surely you don't want a blurred picture to greet every visitor? Also get rid of the google ads right at the top. They just make the whole thing look tacky. Have to be honest on first impressions it really is poorly designed.

    However its a nice concept and if you put in the time and effort needed to build the sites content Im sure it could be a decent success. I know I might have been a bit hard on ya pal but that first impression is all that counts when people are searching in a hurry.

    Personally not keen first thing I see is just all header which I dont find has much impact, then google adds and google search with links to your social websites like twitter and facebook. Its a real turn off for me right away and would probley leave already to be honest if I was not looking to reveiw the site and look more into the website.

    Even lower down its just too busy with more adds for amazon and panels for facebook and twitter again. There are some great pictures on there and you need to put more real estate towards what the site is about, to me it looks more like your interested in trying to make money from adds than you are actually giving good content like the great picures you have on your site.

    Content area is too small. You should remove the left column

    Look better than most blogspot blog out there. Unfortunately I think your content column is just too small. Maybe you should remove the left sidebar.
