The photos themselves are a visual treat, great going! I would suggest that you play around with the template a little more, though; to make the images really pop out. Keep clicking and posting, you have the talent.

Hey John, welcome to IB Reviews. Here are my two cents. 

  • The theme is unlike a photoblog. There are plenty of photography blog themes out there. Also suggest you checkout Joshi Daniel's site. 
  • Having said that, it is neat, clean. 
  • You need to consistantly tag your blog posts. Some of them are in Uncategorized category. 
  • Use of consistant fonts face and font color help users get a better experience. Not many would care, only because they do not realize they actually do. 
  • There are too many posts on your home page, making it long for even scrolling. This could lead to loss of interest sometimes. Reduce the number of posts to 4 to 5. I do not see you posting more than 1 picture, so read more is not applicable. 
  • Avoid long widgets in your right hand bar. 
  • As I commented on your blog, try looking at converting your blog into Travel + Photography blog. 

That would be it from me. Keep Blogging buddy.

Hi Lalitha thanks a lot for your comments on the blog , this is my first blog and I am still learning how to use it as a medium to showcase my photography .I am planning to change the theme ( as suggested by Hemal ) so I can have a nice home page wiht better navigation .

Hi Hemal you have given me quiet a few pointers , greatly appreciated !!! 

-I chose this theme coz of the size of the pictures , I wanted a clean neat interface .Adding widgets made the size of the photos smaller but I had to place the widgets something .Planning to change the theme to one which has a nice grid home page ,that way its easy to navigate to different posts 

- Yes most of the posts have gone uncategorised , that is because I use the create post shortcut .Will edit the post and categories them asap .

_ I never paid attention to the font , I though the theme will have a default font 

_ Better home page coming up !!! 

- I am working on making it a photo + travel blog , frankly I dont enjoy writing :P hence I have been postponing posts on travel .But I do have some good ideas that other travel bloggers would love , work in progress .

 

Really appreciate the time you took to go through my blog !!!!

Cheers !!!

Nice Blog, I enjoyed watching it. You used some widgets available to give more addons to your blog... 

The only suggesting I have is 'Keep blogging+photography' :)
