New Smugmug

Today it will be a little longer post :). So first thing. Smugmug changed it’s look recently so I also changed the way my portfolio page (www.hdrshooter.net) looks. I think it looks better now, but I still have to do a lot more customization to it, so it look less generic. But all takes time. But one thing they added, which I really like, is that you can change the order of the photos in a gallery. Finally :)

1 000 000 photo views

When on the Smugmug topic. I checked my statistics there and I just reached 1 000 000 photo views as counted from the 1st January of this year. Big thank you to all who visited my potfolio, and I hope you will again find reasons to take a look at it :)

Top 5 spots in Paris

Also maybe some of you noticed a new addition to the Top 5 spots category. This time I added the Top 5 photography spots in Paris. As I’m not yet such familiar with the whole of Paris, please take this more as a top 5 must visit spots there. All give you great photo opportunities and should be visited.

View from the Aggstein castle ruins

And finally the daily photo. Today it’s the view form the Aggstein castle ruins in Austria. The view from there is just stunning and you don’t even have to walk up there, as the road goes completely up to the castle :) I could spend hours here. If you are ever close by, I definitively suggest a visit.

This is a manual blend from 5 shots.
