Photoshop Plugin
If you are tired of all the template photography portfolios out there, I have something to share with you. Sitegrinder is an incredible Photoshop plugin. It allows you to design a website using Photoshop, and then converts it to a clean CSS/HTML website in no time. What I love about it is that you are able to place photos, text, anything – any where you want! It is so simple. Sitegrinder 2 is the current version, but they are testing a Beta version on Sitegrinder 3 right now.
I designed my portfolio website using Sitegrinder 2. It was very simple and easy to use. Check it out at www.sbward.com.
Photograph
This photograph is of a beautiful bird native here in East Africa. It is called a roller. We see these guys all over, and I never tire of takingtheir picture. The problem is that many times you are taking pictures of these birds with a light sky behind them, and so you get your bird wa too dark. Now a days, I simply wait until I get a darker background behind them, and the pictures turn out so much better.
I took his photo in Tarangire National Park in Tanzania. I went there with a volunteer team a couple of weeks ago. We were really disappointed, because we saw very few animals. The last time I was there, we saw over 1000 elephants. This time we saw a small handful from a distance.
