Thank you for visiting the new and improved StarvingPhotographer.com. If this is your first visit, welcome! If you’ve been here before, you’ll notice a drastic change in both format and content. This website has been completely revamped, hopefully making it more user friendly and informative. Here’s a list of the major changes I’m really excited about:

• A brand new “look” to the entire website
• Addition of this blog section
• Better organization of photos, complete with categories, keywords and geotags
• Easier gallery navigation, with ability to see images at various sizes
• A robust search function
• A streamlined ordering process, with many more options for print sizes and merchandise

For this first blog, I wanted to briefly mention my recent foray into bird photography. I’ve made a not-so-insignificant investment in a new camera body and a large telephoto lens. Landscapes will always be my first love, but I’m beginning to be wooed by bird/wildlife photography. Here’s an image of me behind my “monster” gear:

And here is what I was photographing:

In the coming weeks and months, I will be blogging about interesting and photogenic locations, photoshop tips/tutorials, upcoming arts and crafts shows I’ll be participating in, and just about anything remotely related to photography. So, please have a look around and stop by often. Feel free to leave comments or ask questions, and I promise to respond as quickly as I can.
