We’ve Moved and Renovated!

Well it’s the same address but as you can see we have made some changes. The site is now on a server provided by Alan Joyce at What@Site. Alan is a friend of mine and he provides hosting services for several hundred sites. If you are looking for personal service he’s the guy.
This site was built using WordPress which I used for the old site but this is a better theme for displaying my photography. This theme is called Mystique by DigitalNature. It has a great API for linking to my photos at Flickr.com.
I plan to update the site more often and photos are updated often at Flickr.com.
