Photowalking.org

Hi everyone – it’s coming up to just about a week until the London Photowalk. The meet up has been designated at the Blackfriar pub (as Blackfriars is quite simple to get to by train and by Tube) from there we can easily get to the city, the South Bank, Law land, theatre land etc. I’ll be in there from one grabbing a pint / some food – don’t want to be to wonky shooting – and then probably set of at two-ish giving a couple of hours of light, a sunset and then a bit of night shooting.

All abilities, ages, cameras and style welcome. I’m sure we’ll all learn something from each other so please feel free to add yourself to the UpComing list (or move from Watch to Attend )

I look forward to meeting you all!

For quite a bit I’ve not liked the Photowalking.org theme. So, a couple of months back I started looking for a new one. In the midst I found a theme that I just knew would work great for my personal blog over at TrevorCarpenter.com. I continued my search.

Every so often I’d load up a small list of themes, testing them out. Usually I’d do this late at night, when most in the US were sleeping. I never liked what I kept trying.

Then this week it hit me. Hey! I like my other blog’s theme. Why not use it on both. So, here it is!

What I wanted was something simple enough to not draw attention from the articles and the photographs included. Something easy to navigate, with good sidebar widget control. Additionally, I wanted a theme that was wide enough to include large images or many in just one. What do you think?

Oh, and if you’re reading this in your RSS reader…click on over and take a look.

I still have a little bit of work to do. I need to move over all the information from the old sidebar and the ad stuff for B&H.

The title says it all. Thomas Hawk is in NYC this week and he’s leading a photowalk from Washington Square Park. You can find them at the corner of West Fourth Street and Macdougal Street.

Here’s the Upcoming link.
