nice photos but you have to do something about the homepage. there's nothing? it's a photography site, show some photographs!

like the fades... never seen that on indexhibit... however i thought the 'travel photography' was the chosen link, and clicked the one below which was actually already clicked on...
could at least do something with the type, and deffo the contrast for selected items...
like the photos though... grr winter!

I feel like I've seen them before...
Have they been posted here before... or do I have déjà vu?

Really like the Santorini Panoramas...
Have you approached any of the tourist organisations with your photo's?

If I see another "Indexhibit" website template I am going to shoot myself. Indexhibit is just one step above having a myspace page and a half step behind have a Flickr account!

I agree with 3point. I used Indxr for a duration of time. I loved it, but it was not original. It was a great way to share work, but not necessarily the best way to showcase. I would recommend to either higher a web designer or buy a template and mold it. My two cents.
- lol. higher = hire. That is what I get for writing before having a coffee.dibec

You don't need some amazing design to show off photography.

I agree Jaline, but you need something different. =P

not all photographers have web designers, or know html to show the stuff... please 3pointwhatever enlighten us... you seem to have a lot to say about everything, but nothing to show for yourself?
- Forgot to mention, love the way you did your site. I enjoy scripts like that. I found some more script ideas from your site.Jaline
- hey lady, this ain't about my site ;)mimeartist_com

In all honesty, I think there would be a lot of QBN'ers that would be willing to help out. I don't think it would be free, but perhaps a trade for trade. Dunno. I have helped out some local photographers in PDX, they barely knew what http was. I have got some good Karma back for it.

looks good.. I would make the pics maybe a bit smaller. I have to scroll at their size (up and down... maybe 600px tall would be the limit?) I would like to see more of a variety of work, but for now, it looks good.

photo crit:
your panoramas need a little more work in photoshop. some transitions between frames are still a little obvious - the border between saturated and not-saturated areas is sometimes too blatant. i understand how in the first, funky-colored one, this is part of the desired effect, but on the other ones it's a bit disconcerting.
on a more general scale, what's the purpose of your site? is it to get more work taking pictures like this? if so, you might try to develop more of a "personal style" - i see elements of this already, but the way you post-process is not consistent - some are hugely saturated, some have super high contrast and vignetting, some are delicately toned - so it's harder to sum up your work, like "agios makes photos that are _____." at least, you might try restricting each series you have to one style of post-processing.
overall though, these are strong images - certainly postcard-quality at least, and the subjects in some of them do show depth as well as a critical eye.
just my thoughts - hope that helps a little.
- dammit. i meant to say "andreas," not "agios." sorry.bigtrick

Love your Panoramas and Landscape shots, the portrait shots just don't seem to work in the travel category they never do. Stick to the landscape and Panoramas.

I generally agree with bigtrick!
Other than that I think your colors and compositions are very nice, and you clearly show that you have an eye for subjects. You should put together a physical portfolio and send it to travel agencies - your style would really fit their needs!

very very nice.
yet i see some room for improvement. some photos need little tighter cropping or a more careful composition as there are sometimes elements on the edges of the photo that distract or a chair that is cut off on the bottom edge... tiny whiny things i know, but i tend to mind thse things when i shoot myself.. :)
