Hi,
your site looks nice, but I might suggest a few things for your consideration. For some reason the pictures load too slow. Average user wil not wait more than 5 seconds for page to load and might leave your site because of that. That could be so for many reasons. Maybe your webhost has slow servers so the trasfer speed is an issue, maybe the site needs to be optimized different to load faster, maybe pictures need to be recompressed or saved in a different format to speed up loading. You can't go wrong having a fast loading site. On the other hand, you might lose many visitors if it's slow - Just a thought.
Also, many pictures are really nice, awesome composition and POV, but colorwise - lack shadows. I'm not sure if you're using a digital camera or a film camera in which case these woule be scans. Either way, I would suggest that you take any image editor and adjust levels so that the fulle range or tones is covered in each pictures. Your blacks seem to end somewhere in the middle of the scale, which makes for images to look washed out. Try it out and you'll notice the improvement yourself right away.
Good luck,
Mark

Hi Mark, thank you for feedback. It's very valuable for me.
I know the quality it's not the best, but I tried preserving original photos. I guess a little improvemnet doesn't harm at all . Regarding your question: it's a film camera and there are scans indeed.
Thank you again, i wait any other feedback from members.
Tudor
P.S. Mark, I really like your site

Hi Tudor,
I made this picture for you to see what exactly I meant. i suspect it's your scanner that doesn't do the justice to your pictures and they look a little on bright side which to some poeple might seem as "washed out"
I made simple adjustment in photoshop elements to make sure full scale of colors is covered in the pctures and instead of a washed out one we now have a nice deep picture. What do you think? You might want to try to apply similar thing to more of your images to give them better look. I believe that your prints are this good, but they appear on the screen as washed out most likely because of poor scanner job. Just an idea.
PS. thanks a lot for your compliments,
Mark
