I decided change my website a bit. Since I’m a nature photographer, I wanted the site to reflect a more natural or outdoor look. I changed the color scene for a more earthy tone and I modeled the black and white photo, “Wintertime at the Tioga Lake in BW” as the top header. I used one of my archived “grass.gif” from my first backpacking website, Mike’s Hikes and Stuff and changed the color to fit the new scheme.

While I was changing the look, I added some new pictures to my online gallery:
Twilight on Mammoth Peak
Saint Catherine’s Church with Clouds
Liquid Gold
Frozen
Geometric Ice I
Geometric Ice II
Stalking Great Egret
Saint Catherine’s Church with Clouds in BW
View of the Kuna Crest in Black and White
